Base Parameters
AB	Acid Binding Capacity	2.237 mmol/L	2.5 - 3.036 ml	▲
The acid binding capacity, also known as alkalinity or carbonate hardness, refers to the ability of the water in a reef aquarium to resist changes in pH when acids are added. It is a measure of the concentration of carbonate and bicarbonate ions (CO32- and HCO3-) in the water. These ions act as a buffer, helping to stabilize the pH of the water by neutralizing acids that may be introduced into the aquarium. In a reef aquarium, maintaining a stable pH is crucial for the health and well-being of the inhabitants, particularly corals, which are sensitive to pH fluctuations. Alkalinity is closely linked to the carbonate equilibrium in the water, and it plays a vital role in various biological processes, including coral calcification and the overall stability of the aquatic environment. Maintaining proper alkalinity levels ensures that the water can effectively buffer changes in pH, preventing rapid and potentially harmful fluctuations. It also supports the health and growth of corals and other reef organisms that depend on stable pH conditions for their physiological processes. Therefore, monitoring and adjusting alkalinity as needed is an essential aspect of reef aquarium maintenance. For dosing help please refer to the Alkalinity dosing section.
CaCO₃	Calcium Carbonate Equivalent	111.835 ppm	121.6 - 152 mg/l	▲
Calcium Carbonate Equivalent is a term used to express the amount of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) present in the aquarium water in terms of its potential to raise the pH. In reef aquariums, calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is essential for the growth and calcification of corals and other calcifying organisms. Calcium and carbonate ions combine to form calcium carbonate, which serves as the building blocks for coral skeletons and structures. While the term “Calcium Carbonate Equivalent” might not be commonly used in reef aquarium discussions, the underlying idea of understanding the actual calcium contribution of supplements is important for maintaining optimal water chemistry and supporting the health of coral and other calcifying organisms in the aquarium.
Macro Elements
F	Fluoride	1.12 mg/l	1.2 - 1.9 mg/l	▲
Fluor is a naturally occurring chemical element that is commonly found in water sources, including seawater in the form of Fluoride (F-). Fluoride cannot be measured with an ICP technique and therefore requires a secondary test using Ion Chromatography or an Ion Selective Electrode. It is an element that like Iodine and Bromide belongs to the halogen group and performs an important role. In a reef aquarium, fluoride is generally present at low concentrations as it is in marine environments. The importance of fluoride in a reef aquarium lies in its potential role in coral health and skeletal formation. Some research suggests that fluoride may contribute to the structural integrity of coral skeletons by incorporating fluoride ions into the aragonite crystal lattice, which is the primary component of coral skeletons. This process is believed to increase the density and strength of the skeleton, making it more resistant to physical stress and predation. However, it’s essential to note that while fluoride may have a beneficial impact on coral skeletons, it is just one of many factors that contribute to overall coral health and growth. Fluoride levels are typically not a primary concern for most reef aquarium hobbyists however, values consistently below 1.2 mg/l will lead to poor colouration and growth, higher light sensitivity and less resistance to parasites. On a scale of 1-10 (1 low, 10 high) we classify the importance of Fluoride supplementation a 6 and suitable for all levels of reefers. To reach the desired level of 1.50 mg/l please dose 76.00 ml of Reef Zlements Fluoride per day for 2 days.

Trace Element
Cr	Chromium	0.10 µg/l	0.2 - 1 µg/l	▲
Chromium is a trace element present in small quantities in the seawater of reefs all around the world. Chromium is used to form enzymes for fat metabolisation in cells as such may have positive impacts on coral skeleton calcification, health and coloration. Chromium gets depleted from the water in our tanks quickly. Naturally, Chromium in seawater varies strongly and is usually between 0.2-0.6 µg/l. Too low chromium values lead to slow growth. Chromium plays an important role in the absorption and use of fatty acids in corals. On a scale of 1-10 (1 low, 10 high) we classify the importance of chromium supplementation a 4 and suitable for experienced reefers only. The use of our 2 part systems like Complete or pHplus will supplement Chromium helping to maintain adequate levels over time. It is recommended to dose Chromium continuously (as needed) in as many small doses as possible. This will ensure Chromium is present and available in the water (despite precipitation and potentially being below the ICP limit of detection). For ease of dosing and if you wish you can dose our elements via a dosing pump mixing them together in 2 solutions. The following Reef Zlements elements can be mixed with chromium – barium, iron, cobalt, copper, manganese, nickel and zinc. Please note that given the different products available in the market the above only applies to Reef Zlements trace elements and that we cannot guarantee the safety of the mix with other products. To reach the desired level of 0.50 µg/l please dose 0.07 ml of Reef Zlements Chromium per day for 23 days.

Cu	Copper	< LOD	0.1 - 5 µg/l	▲
Copper is a trace element present in small quantities in the seawater of reefs all around the world. Copper is an essential trace element that kept in small concentrations has positive impacts on coral skeleton calcification, health and colouration along being needed for multiple biological processes of corals and other organisms. It is important to check Copper levels through ICP analysis and ensure adequate levels and stability by dosing a Copper supplement as needed. Naturally, Copper in seawater varies but its concentration doesn’t go above 3 µg/l. On a scale of 1-10 (1 low, 10 high) we classify the importance of copper supplementation a 5 and suitable for experienced reefers only. The use of our 2 part systems like Complete or pHplus will supplement copper helping to maintain adequate levels over time. It is recommended to dose copper continuously (as needed) in as many small doses as possible. This will ensure Copper is present and available in the water (despite precipitation and potentially being below the ICP limit of detection). Please note that for reference one drop is approximately 0.02-0.05 ml. If your recommended dose is below 1 drop per day, feel free to dose every other day (or less). For ease of dosing and if you wish you can dose our elements via a dosing pump mixing them together in 2 solutions. The following Reef Zlements elements can be mixed with copper – barium, iron, chromium, cobalt, manganese, nickel and zinc. Please note that given the different products available in the market the above only applies to Reef Zlements trace elements and that we cannot guarantee the safety of the mix with other products. To reach the desired level of 0.20 µg/l please dose 0.08 ml of Reef Zlements Copper per day for 10 days.

I	Iodine	35.23 µg/l	60 - 95 µg/l	▲
Iodine is a trace element belonging to the halogen group, which is present in reefs all around the world, being one of the most important elements for all animals and plants in our aquariums. It can be present in different organic and inorganic forms, however in our aquariums Iodine mainly exists as inorganic iodine, iodate, and iodide. Nonetheless corals and bacteria can absorb all forms of iodine, and as such it is irrelevant in which form it is added. Iodine concentrations in seawater vary widely, but it is commonly agreed that a level of 60-80 µg/l is ideal. Iodine has been known to have a positive impact in aquariums where macro algae is present and to impact the blue and green colours of the genus Acropora and Montipora. A low Iodine concentration manifests itself in poor colouration, reduced (or non-existent) growth, colourless growth tips or growth edges, and high light sensitivity allowing bleaching to more readily occur. Low Iodine concentrations can also weaken the coral immune system, reducing any resistance to parasites. Below ideal levels, Iodine will greatly impact bio-filtration and coral polyp extension is reduced (even when feeding LPS). Very low levels of Iodine combined with low levels of other halogens such as Bromine can promote dinoflagellate growth. With extreme iodine deficiency i.e. below 30 µg/l, SPS corals stop growing and RTN-STN infections occur more frequently. With continued iodine deficiency, SPS corals start to STN from the base. On a scale of 1-10 (1 low, 10 high) we classify the importance of Iodine supplementation a 9 and suitable for all levels of reefers. The use of our 2 part systems like Complete or pHplus will supplement Iodine helping to maintain adequate levels over time. For ease of dosing and if you wish you can dose our elements via a dosing pump mixing them together in 2 solutions. The following Reef Zlements elements can be mixed with iodine – fluorine, lithium, molybdenum, selenium and vanadium. Please note that given the different products available in the market the above only applies to Reef Zlements trace elements and that we cannot guarantee the safety of the mix with other products. To reach the desired level of 60.00 µg/l please dose 0.66 ml of Reef Zlements Iodine per day for 3 days.			Dosing Diary Total dosed 0.00 ml Day 1 dosed amount - 0.66 ml Day 2 dosed amount - 0.66 ml Day 3 dosed amount - 0.66 ml
Fe	Iron	< LOD	0.2 - 5 µg/l	▲
Iron is present in reefs all around the world, being one of the most important elements for all animals and plants in our aquariums. Having a strong role in many different metabolic processes, including the transport of oxygen in the blood of animals. Iron gets depleted (precipitates) from the water in our tanks very quickly. Iron has been known to have a positive impact in aquariums where macro algae is present and to improve green colours. It also plays an important role in the availability of nitrogen. A deficiency of Iron can result in corals and biofilms (bacteria) not being able to process nitrogen compounds as well, if at all. The reflection of this is that nutrients (NO3 and PO4) in the system increase substantially. Often Iron is a limiting factor in the nitrogen cycle and carbon dosing (CarboPlus) will not perform as expected in reducing PO₄³⁻ and NO3- due to a lack of Iron. A good Iron supplementation will improve the green and yellow colours in corals. Iron not only precipitates quickly but, is also removed by filtration and consumed quickly, it is recommended that the dose shown below is performed weekly by splitting in to as many doses as possible (ideally dosed more than once a day). On a scale of 1-10 (1 low, 10 high) we classify the importance of Iron supplementation a 7 and suitable for all levels of reefers. The use of our 2 part systems like Complete or pHplus will supplement Iron helping to maintain adequate supplementation over time. It is recommended to dose Iron continuously (as needed) in as many small doses as possible. This will ensure Iron is present and available in the water (despite the quick depletion and potentially being below the ICP limit of detection). If you maintain macro algae please multiply your daily dose by 2x. However, if yellow corals do start to appear green, reduce the dose. Please note that for reference one drop is approximately 0.02-0.05 ml. If your recommended dose is below 1 drop per day, feel free to dose every other day (or less). For ease of dosing and if you wish you can dose our elements via a dosing pump mixing them together in 2 solutions. The following Reef Zlements elements can be mixed with iron – barium, chromium, cobalt, copper, manganese, nickel and zinc. Please note that given the different products available in the market the above only applies to Reef Zlements trace elements and that we cannot guarantee the safety of the mix with other products. To reach the desired level of 0.40 µg/l please dose 0.06 ml of Reef Zlements Iron per day for 29 days.

Mn	Manganese	0.17 µg/l	0.9 - 4 µg/l	▲
Manganese is present in all reefs around the world, being an extremely important element for animals and plants in our aquariums. Being a cofactor to many enzymes it has a strong role in the metabolic processes of almost all organisms, Manganese has been known to have a positive impact around the oxidative processes in organisms and is an essential element for corals having an impact in both growth and colouration (specially red). Manganese in the aquarium precipitates quickly making it almost non-existent thus, can only be detected if the concentration is much higher than needed. A lack of manganese is visible in dull tissue, reduced growth (or none at all), colourless growth tips and little to no polyp extension in Goniopora and Alveopora corals as well as light sensitivity in LPS. Manganese also plays an important role in photosynthesis making it crucial for corals, algae and phytoplankton. On a scale of 1-10 (1 low, 10 high) we classify the importance of manganese supplementation an 8 and suitable for all levels of reefers. If GFO is used we recommend the additional supplementation of Manganese as GFO will absorb Mn. The use of our 2 part systems like Complete/pHplus or our NO3/PO4 reduction supplement CarboPlus will supplement Manganese helping to maintain adequate levels over time. It is recommended to dose Manganese daily and as in as many small doses as possible. This will ensure Manganese is present and available in the water (despite precipitation and potentially being below the ICP limit of detection). If you maintain Goniopora corals, macro algae or a high coral bio-mass please multiply your daily dose by 2x. Please note that for reference one drop is approximately 0.02-0.05 ml. If your recommended dose is below 1 drop per day, feel free to dose every other day (or less). For ease of dosing and if you wish you can dose our elements via a dosing pump mixing them together in 2 solutions.

Se	Selenium	0.17 µg/l	0.2 - 5 µg/l	▲
Selenium is a trace element present in small quantities in the seawater of reefs all around the world. Selenium is a very important trace element that kept in small concentrations has positive impacts on coral skeleton calcification, health and coloration along protecting the corals from oxidative compounds. To maximise its benefits Selenium should be used in conjunction with VitaPlus. It is recommended to dose Selenium continuously (as needed) in as many small doses as possible. This will ensure Selenium is present and available in the water (despite precipitation and potentially being below the ICP limit of detection). Please note that for reference one drop is approximately 0.02-0.05 ml. If your recommended dose is below 1 drop per day, feel free to dose every other day (or less). On a scale of 1-10 (1 low, 10 high) we classify the importance of selenium supplementation a 5 and suitable for experienced reefers only. For ease of dosing and if you wish you can dose our elements via a dosing pump mixing them together in 2 solutions. The following Reef Zlements elements can be mixed with selenium – fluorine, iodine, lithium, molybdenum and vanadium. Please note that given the different products available in the market the above only applies to Reef Zlements trace elements and that we cannot guarantee the safety of the mix with other products. To reach the desired level of 0.20 µg/l please dose 0.06 ml of Reef Zlements Selenium per day for 2 days.			Dosing Diary Total dosed 0.00 ml Day 1 dosed amount - 0.06 ml Day 2 dosed amount - 0.06 ml
Zn	Zinc	< LOD	3 - 12 µg/l	▲
Zinc is a trace element present in reefs all around the world and is one of the most important elements for all animals and plants in our aquariums as it is involved in many metabolic and cellular processes. Zinc concentrations in seawater normally vary between 0.6-5 µg/l, however, Zinc gets depleted from the water in our tanks very quickly. Low Zinc concentrations will impair coral growth and render corals more sensitive to light and bleaching. The nutrient cycle is also impacted and the bio-export of NO3 and PO4 is significantly reduced. On a scale of 1-10 (1 low, 10 high) we classify the importance of zinc supplementation a 4 and suitable for experienced reefers. The use of our 2 part systems like Complete or pHplus will help to maintain adequate levels over time. It is recommended to dose Zinc continuously (as needed) in as many small doses as possible. This will ensure Zinc is present and available in the water (despite potentially being below the ICP limit of detection). Please note that for reference one drop is approximately 0.02-0.05 ml. If your recommended dose is below 1 drop per day, feel free to dose every other day (or less). For ease of dosing and if you wish you can dose our elements via a dosing pump mixing them together in 2 solutions. The following Reef Zlements elements can be mixed with zinc – barium, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, manganese and nickel. Please note that given the different products available in the market the above only applies to Reef Zlements trace elements and that we cannot guarantee the safety of the mix with other products. To reach the desired level of 5.00 µg/l please dose 0.80 ml of Reef Zlements Zinc per day for 25 days.

Base Parameters
Macro Element
Sr	Strontium	12.54 mg/l	8 - 12 mg/l	▲
Strontium is a macro element which is present in all reefs around the world. Although its physiological effects are still being studied, there is evidence that impacts on the health of animals. Strontium is associated with calcification of coral skeleton and general coral health and therefore important for maintaining good growth and coral health. A high level of Strontium can lead to coral health issues, we do recommend lower such levels with 6x 20% water changes with a good quality salt.
Trace Element
Si	Silicon	667.390 µg/l	0 - 600 µg/l	▲
Silicon is a non-metallic element that occurs in the ocean and the aquarium in large quantities. Despite being commonly seen as a problematic element the reality is that it isn’t and corals will tolerate very high concentrations of Silicates, in fact it is essential for corals, algae and sponges. Nonetheless, diatoms require silicates in high quantities to multiply, as such, high levels of silicon can lead to diatom blooms, leading to nutrient depletion and other issues. Silicon can enter the aquarium via ceramic bio media, salt, food, supplements aimed at fighting dinoflagellates or RO containing high levels of silicates. We therefore recommend you installing a Reverse Osmosis unit with a high quality DI resin like the Reef Zlements DI resin click here after the membrane and performing 6x 20% water changes with a high quality salt.
Nutrients
NO3	Nitrate	16.01 mg/l	2 - 15 mg/l	▲
Nitrate (NO3-) is a molecule that contains nitrogen and oxygen. In the context of a reef aquarium, nitrates are a byproduct of the nitrogen cycle, which is crucial for maintaining water quality and a healthy environment for the aquarium inhabitants, particularly in a reef aquarium. Nitrates along with orthophosphate at ideal levels are considered important nutrients for corals, helping coral health and colouration. Idealy nitrates want to be kept below 25 in a 1:100 ratio to orthophosphate. With ideal levels and this ratio, the ideal NO3/PO4 conditions for coral health and algae control are achieved. Nonetheless, if the nitrates are too high excessive bacteria (including cyanobacteria), undesireable algae can appear and corals tend to become darker so, it is important to maintain nitrates within the ideal range. To keep nitrate levels in check, ensure that you use an adequately sized protein skimmer, employ efficient biological filtration, control feeding and waste accumulation in the tank. Additionally, you can add a refugium or algae reactor to the system. To help both the biological filtration and macro algae we recommend the use of CarboPlus which you can find more information here
