Brightwell Aquatics Restor Coral Tissue Supplement, 500 ml, reef supplement

Brightwell Aquatics Restor is a 500 ml coral tissue supplement for both freshwater and marine aquariums. The bottle holds a marine-derived blend of proteins with amino and fatty acids, including EPA and DHA. It is formulated for corals and their allies that have recently entered a new aquarium, are adjusting to new lighting, have been exposed to prolonged elevated temperatures, or have tissue damage from fragmenting, propagation or grazing.

What the 500 ml bottle provides

Marine sources supply the proteins and the amino and fatty acids in this formula (F1). EPA, DHA and other omega-3 fatty acids are among its ingredients (F2). Naturally occurring pigments are also present (F3).

The manufacturer formulates Restor for corals adjusting to new lighting, prolonged high temperatures and tissue damage from fragmenting, propagation or grazing by other aquarium inhabitants or pests (F4, F5, F6). It supplies nutrients to corals during recovery or reacquisition of zooxanthellae (F8). The product does not directly reverse coral bleaching (F9).

Allow 10–15 minutes after feeding before resuming filtration (F14). Use a syringe-type device to discharge the mixture 2–4 inches upstream of the target organisms (F15).

Is this supplement right for my aquarium?

Restor is for both freshwater and marine aquariums (F7). It is useful for frags or recently introduced corals in new reef tanks (F10). Situations it is formulated for by the manufacturer include adjusting lighting, tissue damage, extended periods of high temperature, propagation, fragging, and defence against unwanted grazing or predatory pests (F11). Restor does not directly reverse coral bleaching (F9), so it is not a treatment for bleached corals. The directions include turning off mechanical filtration and waiting 10–15 minutes after feeding before resuming it (F13, F14).
