Reef Iodide™ is an iodide supplement for those with dense populations of invertebrates or soft corals. It is also useful in tanks with aggressive skimmers. Reef Iodide™ is concentrated at 8,000 mg/L. As little as 1 mL in 160 Liters (40 gallons) will raise iodide to natural seawater concentration. It is formulated to provide a safe source of iodide that will not convert to toxic free iodine under storage or reef conditions. It is recommended that this product be used with the MultiTest: Iodide™ test kit to ensure proper maintenance of iodide levels. 100 mL treats 8,000 L (2,000 gallons). DIRECTIONS: BEGINNER: Add 2 mL for each 80 L (20 gallons) every other day. Measuring pipette is included (or cap may be used, 5 mL)
ADVANCED: Add 1 mL for each 80 L (20 gallons) daily to raise iodide by 0.10 mg/L. If necessary, adjust dose so that iodide reads 0.06–0.08 mg/L 6–12 hours after the last dose. Thereafter, use this dose daily and check iodide twice a month.
EXPERT: After determining the iodide consumption rate, set up a continuous drip system. Use the following formula to determine how much to add to your top-off water: m=0.5vi (m=mL of product to add to top off water, v=volume of tank in gallons, i=amount to raise iodide in mg/L). For example, if you want to raise iodide by 0.10 mg/L in a 50 gallon tank, then you would add 0.5x50x0.10=2.5 mL into the top-off water. HINTS: It is normal for iodide levels to decline after a few days. This results from utilization and chemical depletion. Therefore, frequency of use will vary with different reef tanks. Dosing can be adjusted based on coral response. To check iodide levels use Seachem’s MultiTest: Iodine & Iodide™ test kit. Guaranteed Analysis: Iodine (I) 0.80%; Potassium (K) 0.25%
