    100% reef safe. Safe for use with all fish, corals, and already established aquariums.
    Bottled Fresh on the Day of Shipping:
    Purple Helix, Coralline Algae in a Bottle is the ONLY product developed in a laboratory that contains actual live coraline algae spores. Other similar products are simply a mixture of calcium and magnesium, both of which are already contained in all salt mixes and are rarely ever lacking in a newly setup aquarium. If your levels are not low then using these "purple algae accelerators" provide little to no benefit for your aquarium and we implore you not to fall for the marketing hype.
    Coralline Algae in a Bottle is available only online. You won't find it on the shelves of big chain stores because it is a live product and has a shelf life of only 14 days. Most marine bacteria will not survive more than a few weeks without oxygen and a source of energy. This is the reason for the effectiveness of this product.  Every order is bottled fresh and does not sit on a shelf for a year.
    Directions:
    Use when setting up a new aquarium, when adding new rock or substrate to your tank, and to boost the color and diversity of existing live rock.
    Entire contents must be used within 21 days of bottling date. Expiration date will be printed on bottle.  Every order is bottled on the date that it ships.
    For saltwater use only.
    1 bottle treats up to 50 gallons.
    Shipping:
    We ship Monday-Wednesday via USPS First Class Mail. Order 2 or more bottles and get a free upgrade to USPS Priority Shipping.  Please make sure that your tank is ready and set up prior to ordering.
    Giving Back:
    15% of the proceeds from every bottle is put towards building local reefs. To date we have added over 300,000 lbs of new reef material and over 43,500 sq ft of newly created coral reefs off shore in the Atlantic Ocean.  We hope to achieve our goal of 1,000,000 lbs by the end of 2019.  Thank you for being a direct part of our efforts.
