ATI Essentials Mixed Reef is a two-in-one solution designed for mixed reef aquariums. Designed for enthusiasts who want to put an end to complicated mixing, this ultra-concentrated kit contains two ready-to-use 2.7L containers. It provides both major elements (such as calcium, magnesium or alkalinity) and essential trace elements (iodine, iron, zinc, etc.) without the risk of accumulation. Thanks to its balanced composition, it stabilizes parameters , boosts coral growth, intensifies their coloration and reduces nitrates and phosphates. All without the hassle: same dosage for both parts. Ideal for well-stocked aquariums and suitable for all levels, from beginner to expert.
With ATI Essentials Mixed Reef , we enter another dimension of reef maintenance. Designed from tens of thousands of ICP analyses, this two-component system is the result of continuous improvement over the years. The promise? To offer your corals a stable environment , close to that of the natural reef, with controlled ionic richness and without drift over time.
The #1 KH Complex provides a massive alkalinity of 14,250 °dKH/L. But that's not all: it also contains fluoride, sulfur, and trace elements like iron, iodine, and selenium . Its plus? It helps reduce nitrates and phosphates – ideal for tanks with lots of fish.
The #2 Calcium Complex , on the other hand, delivers up to 100,000 mg of calcium/L. It also enriches the water with magnesium, potassium, boron, bromine, strontium and essential trace elements (zinc, manganese, cobalt, vanadium, etc.) necessary for bone growth and coral coloration .
The big advantage of this kit? It's ready to use right out of the box . No more long sessions preparing Balling solutions. Here, you dose the two components in equal quantities (from 3 to 7 ml per 100 L of water per day), based on your tank's measured consumption. No complicated calculations: you simply adjust according to your KH and Ca tests.
And don't panic if the temperature drops below 20°C: simply warm the bottles or dilute with osmosis water (1:1) to prevent crystals from forming.
| Daily calcium intake in mg/L (ppm) | Recommended daily dosage #2 Calcium Complex |
|---|---|
| 1 | 1 ml / 100 L |
| 2.5 | 2.5 ml / 100 L |
| 5 | 5 ml / 100 L |
Because it's the ideal solution for mixed reef tanks with a medium to high fish population . Easy to use, ultra-effective, it's suitable for beginners and experienced aquarists alike. Its high concentration saves space, limits handling and ensures lasting ionic balance .
And above all, it is compatible with dosing pumps , integrates into any type of modern maintenance, and offers a level of reliability rarely achieved with traditional methods.

Compared to the classic Balling method, this system is about 5 times more concentrated . It limits the risk of errors and simplifies everything. And how does it compare to ATI Essentials SPS? Mixed Reef is better suited to more populated tanks and less "full SPS" oriented, while maintaining excellent stability and good growth.
In winter, in cool rooms (<20°C) or if you receive your product frozen, we recommend simply placing the bottle of #1 on a radiator or in a water bath at 45°C for a few minutes. You can also dilute the two solutions 1:1 with reverse osmosis water to prevent crystallization.
