The ATI ICP-OES Basic Lab Water Analysis is a laboratory water analysis for reef aquariums that provides a detailed overview of your tank's water chemistry beyond what is possible with traditional hobby test kits. The analysis checks major elements, trace elements, key nutrients, and potential pollutants to help identify imbalances that may affect coral health.
Each analysis is performed by ATI's laboratory, with results available online along with recommendations based on your aquarium's results.

How We Photograph Our Corals
- Every WYSIWYG photo is taken in our systems with consistent lighting and a custom white balance.
- Our goal is simple: show the coral as it looks in a properly lit reef — not overly edited or exaggerated.
Our Camera + Lens
- Camera: Sony a7 IV R (mirrorless)
- Lens: Sony FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS
- Macro glass lets us capture fine details like texture, polyp extension, and subtle color shifts without getting too close.
Lighting We Shoot Under
- Primary: EcoTech Radion XR30 Blue
- Supplement: ReefBrite XHO
- Our Radion “photo” mix:
100% Violet
100% UV
100% Deep Blue
65% Blue
Color Accuracy
- We use a custom white balance so the photo matches what you’ll see under a clean, blue-leaning reef spectrum.
- Corals can look different tank-to-tank based on nutrients, spectrum, and flow — but we aim for honest, repeatable photos you can trust.
