Decode open now · Kit coming soon

Reef chemistry, validated.

BioForge turns reef chemistry into decisions. Test with any lab. Decode what it means. Dose the chemistry that fixes it. Every batch verified before it ships.

Chemistry removes the guesswork. Your tank still gets the final word, recalibrate as it tells you to.

THE COMPARISON

Industry chemistry bottles vs one BioForge pouch, same chemistry, dramatically less shipping mass

THE RHYTHM

The chemistry that stops demanding your attention.

Week one. A packet, a beaker, a bottle. Five minutes.

A year in. Your tank looks like the tank you wanted when you started. Testing has become verification, not troubleshooting. You're back to watching corals.

THE SYSTEM

Chemistry that remembers your tank.

BioForge isn't just what you dose. It's how you know what to dose, when to correct, and when to stop, then what happened last time, so next time takes less guessing. Every tool on this site is part of the same loop.

01
Get your ICP results from any lab. Reef Labs, ATI, Triton, Aquaforest. Import the URL or upload the Excel.
02
BioForge interprets the numbers. Urgent risks flagged first. 10-section action plan.
03
Correction order, safe dosing pace, and a 30-day timeline, specific to your tank. Included in every Decode report.
04
Calculator converts your plan into mL/day. Core+ does the rest.
05
Every batch ICP-tested before it ships. Scan the QR. See the report.
06
Same chemistry. Flat pouch. Calculator tells you when you're running low. Subscription ships before you run out.

REAL DECODE · MARCH 2026

— SITUATION

"Aluminum at 0.235 ppm, 11.75× above the safe upper limit. One priority. Everything else waits."

— URGENT RISKS · FIX TODAY

"Stop GFO immediately. 20% water change today. Do not resume phosphate media until retest confirms clear."

— AFTER URGENT RISKS CLEAR

"Potassium at 364 ppm, deficient. KalkPure. Ca, Mg, Alk all holding well. Retest in 30 days."

THE PROOF

Every batch publicly verified, independent ICP-OES analysis, full COA access

Every production batch independently ICP-OES tested. The same elemental analysis standard used in pharmaceutical QC. Most brands make claims. We publish the receipts. ICP-OES verification is of BioForge batch chemistry, not your tank water.

THE FOUNDER

Carlos Mendiluze, founder of BioForge Living Systems

Built by someone who weighs everything.

By trade I work on aircraft. ISO 17025, calibrated balances, chain-of-custody documentation. When I started formulating reef chemistry, I brought the same standard. Every batch is weighed, verified, and published, because that's how I work on everything.
