Dr Tim's ASF Reef Evolution Sea Salt 4x50Gal
Reef Evolution Salt has been formulated to fulfill the needs of reef tanks, with average fish population, with a regular supply of trace elements, calcium, magnesium and alkalinity. It contains food for beneficial bacteria, amino acids and vitamins that support the biological processes in your tank for optimal growth and coloring of your corals as well as the health of your fishes. Reef Evolution salt can be used permanently and for the setting of a new tank.
USAGE: Dissolve the required amount of salt in RO water, 35-37 grams of salt dissolved in 1 liter will give you a specific gravity between 1024-1025 at a temperature of 25° Celsius. Agitate until fully dissolved. We recommend a water change of 10 % of the total water volume every 1-2 weeks.
Feeding & Diet
Feeding & Diet
An opportunistic omnivore, the Pithos Crab will scavenge detritus, uneaten food, and algae — making it a natural cleanup crew member. Supplement with small meaty foods like mysis shrimp or pellets 2–3x per week if natural food sources are limited.
Care & Water Parameters
Care & Water Parameters
The Pithos Crab thrives in stable, well-maintained reef conditions. Target parameters: temperature 72–78°F, salinity 1.025–1.026 SG, pH 8.1–8.4, and alkalinity 8–12 dKH. A mature, established tank of at least 20 gallons is recommended.
Reef & Tank Compatibility
Reef & Tank Compatibility
Generally considered reef-safe. The Pithos Crab coexists well with most corals and peaceful fish. Use caution with very small invertebrates or slow-moving tankmates. Provide ample rockwork and hiding spots to reduce territorial behavior.
Size & Growth
Size & Growth
Pithos Crabs are typically shipped at 0.5–1.5 inches. They are slow-growing and generally remain small, making them well-suited for nano and mid-size reef systems.
