You may be able to get many different types growing on small chunks at your local aquarium store.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome coralline algae will grow with little or no lighting, while others seem to enjoy strong reef lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is evident that lighting does play some role, so you should experiment with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is important to measure phosphates and keep the level as low as possible to encourage coralline algae growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContinuum also recommends that you maintain a calcium level of between 410 and 450 mg\/L (ppm), an alkalinity level of 7 to 11 dKH (2.5 to 4 meq\/L), and a magnesium level of 1250 to 1350 mg\/L (ppm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAquarists keeping SPS corals should consider keeping alkalinity at 7 to no more than 9 dKH (2.5 to 3.21 meq\/L).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAddition of Coralline Purple CX at night will help balance pH and prevent night time pH decline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt will also allow time for the water to clear from the cloudiness that is inherent in dissolving the aragonite particles in the product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoralline Purple CX will cloud the aquarium upon addition, it is therefore recommended that it be added a night in an area of strong flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShake vigorously immediately prior to use!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd 1 capful (5 ml) per 25 US-gallons (100 L) of marine aquarium water 3 to 4 times per week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoralline Purple CX will raise the calcium level in your aquarium.
