Korallen-Zucht B-Balance – 1000 ml

B-Balance by Korallen-Zucht enhances red coloration in SPS and LPS corals while supporting healthy coral base encrustation and growth.

Enhances red coloration of SPS & LPS corals. Promotes deeper coloration. Necessary element for promoting a healthy coral base encrustation. Aids in growth, reproduction and coloration of blue Cespitularia.

Pohl’s B-Balance contains essential minerals and its addition makes it possible to keep delicate animals such as Cespitularia.

• Especially enhances the color red in Acropora, Stylophora and Pocillopora.
• Corals are healthier and more rubust, base encrustation is more solid and also grow in darkly lit areas.
• For the initial use you can dose 50-100 ml per 100 L / 25 gallons tank water to refill missing minerals.
• After this treatment your SPS corals will turn out to new beauty.

Then pause for 2 days.
After that dose 1ml/100L/25gallons daily.

Dosing: qty. of B-Balance reduces to 50% if you also use ZEOspur 2 in your tank.

Compatibility

What it is. KZ's catalogue: enhances red colouration of SPS and LPS corals, enhances rich, deeper colouration, and is a necessary element for improving the corals' basal encrustation. It also improves growth, reproduction and colouration of blue Cespitularia — a genus KZ single out as hard to keep. In the dosing guide they describe it as replacing important trace elements for SPS and soft corals.

Where this sits in the Korallen-Zucht range. KZ build everything around four basis products — ZEOvit zeolite media, ZEObak, ZEOfood and ZEOstart — which together are the ZEOvit system. Everything else in the range, this product included, is a layer on top: colour products, problem solvers, and single elements. KZ's own guidance is that the products can each be used separately, without the complete ZEOvit system and without the other KZ products, but that the full effect in quality and colouration comes only from running the system.

KZ mark B-Balance as usable without the ZEOvit system, and as not one to combine with the Coral System 1–4 programme.

Two different figures are in circulation. Bulk Reef Supply's page says 1 ml per 25 US gallons daily, which works out roughly twice KZ's own weekly rate. We print KZ's figure, from their own guide, because it is the manufacturer's.

No ozone and no UV while you are running the ZEOvit system. That is KZ's instruction, and the reason is the point of the system: ozone and UV destroy the microorganisms and elements the whole method depends on.

KZ's own target water parameters, for any tank running their products: calcium 400–410 mg/L, magnesium 1,260–1,280 mg/L, carbonate hardness 6.5–8, potassium 380–400 mg/L, salinity 33–35 ppt. They add a warning worth repeating: higher figures bring no advantage. Neither growth nor colouration in SPS corals is improved by pushing past these, and higher levels tend to have negative effects.
