DESCRIPTION

Brightwell Aquatics Coral Amino is a concentrated amino acid supplement formulated to match the natural composition found in coral tissues. Designed using data from coral reef research, Coral Amino delivers free-form amino acids that are instantly available for absorption by corals. These building blocks are essential for tissue repair, regrowth, and overall polyp expansion.

Ideal for stony corals, soft corals, and colonial polyps like Zoanthids and Discosoma, this formula supports recovery after fragging or damage and enhances coral coloration. Coral Amino encourages vibrant color by stimulating pigment development, especially in SPS corals. Whether you're a hobbyist or a coral propagation specialist, Coral Amino is an effective way to boost growth and maintain thriving reef systems.

This additive is best used with the protein skimmer and mechanical filtration off to allow optimal absorption. Regular use supports coral vitality in low-nutrient reef tanks and can be used alongside other Brightwell supplements like Restor, KoralColor, and plankton blends. Coral Amino is highly stable and suitable for dosing pumps. Store in a cool, dry place between 34°F and 80°F to preserve freshness.

DIRECTIONS

1. Shake well before each use.

2. Turn off skimmer and mechanical filters.

3. For target feeding, mix 1 ml (20 drops) with aquarium water and apply near coral.

4. For broadcast feeding, add 1 ml per 50 gallons into a high-flow area.

5. For damaged or freshly fragged corals, use Coral Amino and Restor at different times.

6. Do not exceed 5 ml per 50 gallons per day.

7. Gradually increase dose after 2 weeks if needed.

8. Clean dropper with hot water or hydrogen peroxide if contaminated.

9. Works in most dosers; avoid dilution unless properly preserved.

10. Store between 34°F–80°F; avoid repeated freezing.

How We Photograph Our Corals

Every WYSIWYG photo on The Twin Corals Shop is captured directly in our systems using meticulous settings to ensure absolute transparency. Our goal is straightforward: show the coral precisely as it appears in a well-maintained reef aquarium — never heavily filtered or artificially saturated.

Our Camera & Optics

• Camera: Google Pixel 10 Pro
• Lens / Mode: Macro focus lens with manual setting mode
• ISO: 50
• White Balance: Custom set between 9,000K–10,000K

This setup allows us to highlight the finest structural details — from delicate polyp extension and skeletal texture to subtle gradient color shifts — without washing out the true look of the animal.

Lighting We Shoot Under

• Fixtures: Nicrew Hyperreef Gen2 (100W or 150W depending on the system)
• Photo Spectrum Mix: White 5% · Violet 60% · UV 60% · Deep Blue 50%

Color Accuracy & Your Tank

By utilizing a targeted custom white balance, our photos closely mirror what you will see under a clean, balanced blue-leaning reef spectrum.

Keep in mind that corals are living organisms; their appearance can naturally shift from tank to tank depending on your specific water parameters, nutrient levels, lighting spectrum, and flow patterns. We strive to provide honest, dependable photos you can trust so your new coral looks right at home from day one.
