We use it at 1 pound of crushed coral per 10 gallons of water when mixed in with our gravel. Crushed coral dissolves continuously over time. The lower your pH is, the faster it dissolves. As the pH rises, it slows down how fast the coral dissolves. Crushed coral adds a bit of hardness to the water and it significantly boosts KH which buffers pH from swinging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-page-content-container product-page-content-description page-width pdp-load-more loaded\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section-observe\" data-url=\"?view=description-third\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"directions product-content\" data-option=\"directions\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"content_title product-section-header\"\u003eDirections\/Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-section-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe find that crushed coral inside the aquarium may need to be replaced every 1-2 years depending on how low the pH of the tap water is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf using crushed coral in a filter, it will dissolve faster. This means you'll usually use smaller amounts, but replace it more frequently. Replacing crushed coral after 1-3 months is most common.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"abquascape","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49581854818582,"sku":"A1778S","price":44.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0903\/8348\/3158\/files\/crushed-coral-1-3cm-375_e6f4dcfb-30c3-495d-be63-b6a6e623d9eb.webp?v=1734961886","url":"https:\/\/abquascape.com.au\/products\/crushed-coral-2-6cm","provider":"abquascape","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
