Bioavailable silicate source: Supports rapid growth of beneficial diatoms for natural algae control
Reef-safe formulation: Safe for marine aquariums including corals, sponges, and filter feeders
Controlled addition dosing: Allows precise management of silicate levels for optimal results
Supports biodiversity: Enhances siliceous filter feeders and promotes a balanced ecosystem
Easy dosing: Convenient for use in sump or high flow area of the aquarium
Summarized by Shop
Silicate¹⁴+ supplies a reef-safe, bio-available silicate source for marine aquaria. Controlled additions of silicate encourage diatom blooms, which rapidly outcompete nuisance dinoflagellates. Diatoms may leave a temporary brown film on rock and sand; this is expected and will clear naturally once silicates are depleted. Silicate is also
