Korallen-Zucht Spongepower – 10ml

Spongepower from Korallen-Zucht feeds sponges, tridacnas, and sea squirts, boosting their natural water-cleaning role and giving SPS corals longer, more colorful growth tips.

Special food for sponges, tridacnas and sea squirt.

Enhanced growth of sponges and sea squirt support their water cleaning character and thus water quality significantly.

SPS corals get longer colored growing tips. Especially purple is enhanced on all SPS. The recovery of harmed corals is highly improved.

Dosing: 1 drop for 25 gallons or 1 ml for 500 gallons daily.

Compatibility

What it is. Food for filter feeders. KZ's catalogue: it contains food sources for sponges, clams and sea squirts and supports their water-cleaning character, so water quality improves; sponge growth in particular is improved, which helps the biology significantly. On the corals themselves KZ claim enhanced purple colouration in SPS, longer coloured growing tips, and support for the regeneration of damaged 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 Sponge Power as usable without the ZEOvit system, and as not one to combine with the Coral System 1–4 programme.

Bulk Reef Supply give the dose in US units as 1–3 drops per 25 gallons.

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.

Dosage & Directions

Korallen-Zucht's own dose. 1 drop per 100 litres every other day.

How and where it goes in. Directly into the tank, into the flow. All equipment stays running.

Start below the figure, not at it. KZ's own instruction for a first-time user, a lightly stocked tank, or a tank with little growth: reduce the dosage recommendation and adjust upward. Their words — do not act on the principle that the more the merrier.

Calculate on gross volume. KZ ask you to use the gross water amount for dosing arithmetic, not a net figure with rock and sand deducted.
