Salifert Coralline Amino Acids 500 ml — Reef Coral Amino Acids - Salifert

Salifert Coralline Amino Acids 500 ml amino acid supplement for SPS

The Salifert Coralline Amino Acids 500 ml is an essential amino acid supplement designed to boost SPS coral growth and colour. Coral skeletons are built in alternating layers of calcium carbonate and layers rich in amino acids — without supplementation, an ULNS reef stripped by skimming runs out of these amino acids fast. Salifert only contains the amino acids that are essential to reef corals — no compounds that destabilise calcification, no useless amino acids that feed algae.

What these amino acids bring

• Visible growth within days on Montipora and Acropora.
• Wider and more colourful growth margins — most obvious on SPS.
• Food for most corals — not just SPS.
• Lowers the negative impact of phosphate on calcification.
• Formulation free of amino acids that harm skeleton stability.

Salifert dosing guidelines

• 5 ml per 100 L of aquarium water, once weekly.
• Shake well before use.
• Dose into a high-flow area (return, wavemaker) for fast dispersion.
• Reduce frequency if algae starts to build up.

Specifications

• Format: 500 ml

Why get this supplement from ReefSolution

For a complete SPS reef routine we also recommend:

• Salifert KH / Alkalinity Test Kit — the critical reef parameter to watch when dosing amino acids.
• Salifert Calcium Test Kit — faster SPS growth burns through calcium quicker.
• Salifert Phosphate Test Kit — watch PO₄ so SPS colours do not brown out after dosing.
• Salifert Magnesium Test Kit — hold the Ca/KH/Mg trinity stable during growth.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I dose Salifert Coralline Amino Acids?

5 ml per 100 L once a week — increase if SPS respond well, decrease if algae start building.

Are these amino acids safe for an LPS or soft coral reef?

Yes — the formula is reef safe and benefits all corals. SPS are simply the most visibly responsive.

What sets Salifert CAA apart from generic amino acid supplements?

Salifert contains only the amino acids essential to coral skeleton building — no destabilising compounds, no useless amino acids that feed algae.
