Iodine+ Trace Colors A (500 mL) Iodine and halogen supplement

Product details

Iodine+ Trace Colors A (500 mL) Iodine and halogen supplement is a liquid reef supplement designed to help complete the range of complementary major, minor, and trace element complexes used by corals. As an iodine and halogen source, it’s intended for practical use in active reef systems where these elements can be depleted relatively quickly.

In coral biology, iodine and related halogens are associated with biological processes including the production of pink pigments in soft tissue. They are also described as acting as antioxidants and oxidative agents within the coral soft tissue and mucus layer, which the supplier notes can reduce the possibility of coral bleaching. In use, this supplement is best considered alongside balanced nutrient management to support coral coloration; the reference also notes for best results in displaying coral colors use Red Sea’s NO3:PO4– X.

• Includes halogens described as antioxidants and oxidative agents within coral soft tissue and mucus.
• Aims to reduce the possibility of coral bleaching associated with oxidative stress.
• Positioned as part of a complete range of complementary major, minor and trace element complexes.
• Reference suggests pairing color display results with Red Sea’s NO3:PO4– X nutrient product.

Specifications:
