Particulate minerals and fine sediments play a role in the regulation of microbial biofilms in the coral reef. New microbes are transported to the reef's surface with the sediments and at the same time old biofilms are removed. On this bioactivation of the design materials the focus of sango nutri-basic / HED # 3 with its kai geos active ingredients lies.
The dosed lime and mineral particles are also necessary for filtering organisms for skeleton composition and for food production, and promote the growth of the filtering organisms, e.g. Of sponges and mussels. The kai mineral content was doubled in the sango nutri-basic / HED # 3 and is thus even more effective in the case of problems with cyanobacteria and microalgae.
In addition to these main functions, ion-exchange-active sediments provide for a debris binding in the water, which is very well defoamed and produces crystal-clear seawater, which is typical for coral reefs. The turbidity caused by the sango nutri-basic / HED # 3 active ingredients is opposite kai geos and mineral-reduced. The water clears much faster.
