Problem:
All dry blends may not be homogenous resulting in
considerable chemical variations not only from batch to batch but also from within the same container.
Aggravating this further, humidity contamination during storage can result in localized precipitation reactions.

Solution:
B-Ionic® Seawater System avoids these problems by providing the two dominant salts in our formulation in separate
containers. All other major, minor, and trace elements are pre-dissolved in a highly concentrated two component
liquid system. These dry and liquid components can easily be measured for any size batch of synthetic seawater.

Problem:
It is now recognized that most reagent grade salts can contain contaminants (trace metals, etc.) at levels which
may inhibit the growth of some algae species from low nutrient environments (oligotrophic) such as coral reefs.

Solution:
B-Ionic® Seawater System addresses this issue by providing ultra-low heavy metal Sodium Chloride (max. allowable
less than half max. allowable for reagent grade sodium chloride) and USP grade Magnesium Sulfate as the dry
components of the system. In addition, all other chemicals pre-dissolved in our liquid components are subject to our
three phase purification process resulting in significant lowering of contaminants, including phosphate.

Problem:
Many all dry blends take excessive time to completely dissolve. Addition of newly mixed batches to the aquarium
can cause irritation to inhabitants upon exposure to non-dissolved salt micro-particles.

Solution:
B-Ionic® Seawater System avoids this problem by providing all of the slower dissolving ingredients in a pre-dissolved
solution form. Batches can be used within 10 minutes of preparation with no adverse effects providing initial RO and/or
DI water contains sufficient dissolved oxygen.
