Ferrion (250ml) Liquid Iron Supplement

Product details

Ferrion (250ml) Liquid Iron Supplement is a highly-concentrated liquid iron supplement designed to provide iron for photosynthetic/zooxanthellate organisms and other marine plants. In marine aquaria, iron can become a limiting factor for photosynthesis, supporting organisms such as hermatypic (photosynthetic) corals, clams and their allies, macroalgae, coralline algae, and some sponges. It’s often used to support systems such as refugiums or mud systems where nutrient uptake from photosynthetic growth is a goal.

Features:

• Highly-concentrated and stable iron solution formulated to supplement aquaria that contain photosynthetic/zooxanthellate organisms, macroalgae, and coralline algae
• Particularly suited to refugium and mud systems
• Composed of purified water and ultra-high purity materials
• A chelated iron product intended to help address iron limitations that can slow photosynthesis and nutrient uptake
• Dosable with a practical ppm-focused approach, starting in the 0.05–0.10 ppm range and adjusting gradually
• Contains chelated iron (Fe) as Sodium feredetate for supplementation
• Shaking before use is recommended for best consistency
