Red Sea’s Reef Energy AB+ is a special blend of additives specially formulated to meet the needs of marine corals. The Red Sea’s Reef Energy A and B additives are the only ones added to coral food and have been designed for direct absorption into the water. This means that a single dose can provide a variety of nutrients for the coral. This is the ultimate all-in-one superfood for reef aquariums.

Red Sea Reef Energy AB+ is an all-in-one superfood
Red Sea has a new supplement called Reef Energy AB+ for your tank. The supplement contains an organic complex of dissolved and suspended carbohydrates as well as amino acids, fatty acids, and vitamins. It comes in a convenient bottle and is easy to use with an automatic dosing device. The product can be purchased at any marine supply store. Read on to learn about the benefits of using Reef Energy AB+ for your corals.
This product is easy to use with a dosing device that automatically doses the right amount for your reef. It is safe to leave the dosing container unrefrigerated for up to a week. Just make sure to wash the container with soap and water between refills. Use the dosing chart to estimate the correct amount for your tank. You should also turn off the protein skimmer before feeding your corals. Always keep gentle circulation in your tank while feeding.
It feeds corals faster than Reef Energy A & B
Red Sea is discontinuing Reef Energy A & B and replacing it with Reef ENERGY AB+, a one-part formula containing enhanced superfoods for corals. Unlike its predecessors, AB+ offers corals the ability to grow faster and exhibit brighter colors. This dietary supplement provides a blend of amino acids, carbohydrates, fatty acids, and suspended protein flocks. It is also easy to dose and easily absorbable.
The difference in growth rate between the two products was significant and was based on the feeding regime and light intensity. Under low light conditions, fragments had darker pigmentation. Additionally, the fed corals displayed greater coloration than the unfed corals, and their color scores increased significantly over time. The y-axes in Figure 5 show raw color scores and their changes, with the unfed group showing the lowest change.
It has less impact on protein skimming
Red Sea has developed Reef Energy AB+, a proprietary blend of nutrients designed for corals. The food is easy to use, because it is a liquid. Because corals produce about 80 percent of their own nutrition, feeding them is only needed to provide them with the other 20 percent of sustenance they need to survive. But, with Ab+, this process is much easier and less likely to lead to protein skimming.
Fv/Fm decreased with the feeding regime, and the Ab+ group had less protein skimming than the HLUF group. Fv/Fm decreased from 0.74 to 0.60. After 140 days of feeding, both groups showed increased BW, and there was no significant difference in protein skimming between the treatment groups. The results are inconclusive, but this does not mean that you should stop feeding your corals entirely.
It contains dissolved and suspended energy sources
A coral’s diet contains a mix of dissolved and suspended energy sources. These nutrients are essential for growth and reproduction. They also provide the essential amino acids, protein, and other nutrients. Corals must supplement their phototrophic carbon diet with dissolved and suspended energy sources to survive. These are available in two forms, dissolved and suspended, and can be added to the water or mixed with the food.
The DOM in the food chain is a combination of dissolved and suspended energy sources. The dissolved form of these molecules is the dominant form. This type of energy source is produced by bacteria in sediments and ambient water, and the dissolved form is assimilated by consumers. These dissolved and suspended sources are essential for the growth of corals and sponges. Coral food contains dissolved and suspended energy sources, so the consumption of them may be beneficial for other marine life.
