Aquaforest Iodum 50ml is a concentrated iodine supplement designed for marine and reef aquariums. Iodine is an important trace element in seawater, supporting coral pigmentation, n utrient transfer, general cell function and the natural biological processes of marine organisms. Ideal for SPS coral systems, LPS coral aquariums, mixed reef tanks, soft coral systems and shrimp/invertebrate aquariums, Aquaforest Iodum helps replenish iodine that is gradually consumed in closed marine systems. When used as part of a controlled reef dosing routine, it supports dark blue and purple coral colouration, coral tissue protection and shrimp moulting. Key Features Concentrated iodine supplement for marine aquariums 50ml bottle size Supports dark blue and purple colouration in hard corals Helps corals synthesise protective pigments Supports general cell function and nutrient transfer Helps maintain iodine close to natural seawater levels Supports shrimp moulting in marine aquariums Suitable for SPS, LPS, soft coral and mixed reef systems Easy daily drop dosing Best used with regular testing or ICP analysis Product Overview Aquaforest Iodum has been developed for reef keepers who need controlled iodine supplementation in marine aquariums. Iodine is present in natural seawater and is used by corals and other marine organisms in small but important amounts. In closed reef systems, iodine can be consumed quickly by aquarium inhabitants and may also be removed through protein skimming, filtration media and regular aquarium maintenance. Aquaforest Iodum provides a precise and concentrated way to replenish iodine and maintain more stable trace element availability. Benefits for Reef Aquariums Aquaforest Iodum helps support coral health by providing iodine in a concentrated liquid form. Iodine is used by corals during pigment synthesis, helping them adapt to changing lighting conditions and supporting tissue protection against UV radiation. Regular, balanced iodine supplementation can help intensify dark blue and purple tones in hard corals when the main reef parameters, lighting and nutrient levels are stable. Iodum can also support shrimp moulting, making it useful in reef aquariums containing cleaner shrimp, ornamental shrimp and other marine invertebrates. Suitable For Aquaforest Iodum 50ml is suitable for: Marine aquariums Reef aquariums SPS coral systems LPS coral systems Soft coral aquariums Mixed reef aquariums Coral-heavy marine aquariums Shrimp and invertebrate reef systems Aquariums with low iodine readings Systems monitored through ICP testing Controlled trace element dosing routines This product is designed for marine aquarium use and should be dosed according to aquarium demand, coral stock level, invertebrate stock and test results where available. How It Works Aquaforest Iodum provides concentrated iodine for marine aquarium water. Iodine supports general cell function, nutrient transfer and the formation of coral pigments that help corals cope with lighting changes and UV exposure. As corals, shrimp and other marine organisms use iodine, levels can drop quickly in closed aquarium systems. Regular controlled dosing helps maintain iodine availability closer to natural seawater levels. How to Use Shake well before use. Dose 1 drop of Aquaforest Iodum per 100 litres of aquarium water daily. Dose into a high-flow area of the aquarium or sump to help the supplement disperse evenly. For best results, monitor iodine through reliable testing or ICP analysis and adjust dosing carefully according to aquarium demand. Dosing Advice Standard daily dose: 1 drop per 100 litres of aquarium water. Aquaforest states that 1 drop of Iodum raises iodine by approximately 0.01ppm in 100 litres of aquarium water. Every aquarium is different, and iodine demand depends on coral stock, invertebrate stock, filtration, water changes, skimming, salt mix and overall supplementation routine. Dose carefully and avoid unnecessary overdosing. Recommended Iodine Level Aquaforest recommends maintaining iodine at approximately 0.06ppm in reef aquariums. Stability is more important than rapid correction. Avoid large sudden changes, especially in SPS-dominated systems or aquariums with sensitive corals and invertebrates. When to Use Aquaforest Iodum 50ml is useful when: Iodine levels are lower than recommended ICP testing shows iodine depletion Hard corals need dark blue or purple colour support Coral pigment development needs trace element support A reef aquarium contains shrimp or other moulting invertebrates Water changes alone are not maintaining iodine levels A coral-heavy system shows regular trace element demand A controlled reef dosing routine is being used Strong skimming or filtration may be removing iodine Reef Stability Advice Iodine supplementation should always be controlled. More iodine is not automatically better, and overdosing trace elements can stress corals, shrimp and other marine organisms. Before increasing iodine dosing, check the main reef parameters including salinity, calcium, magnesium, KH, nitrate and phosphate. Coral colour depends on overall stability, lighting, nutrients and balanced trace element availability, not iodine alone. Coral Colour Advice Aquaforest Iodum is especially useful for supporting dark blue and purple tones in hard corals. However, coral colour is affected by several factors, including lighting spectrum, nutrient levels, flow, alkalinity stability and overall trace element balance. For best results, use Iodum as part of a stable reef care routine rather than as a quick colour fix. Monitor coral response over time and adjust dosing gradually. Shrimp & Invertebrate Advice Iodine plays a role in supporting shrimp moulting, making Aquaforest Iodum useful in reef aquariums containing cleaner shrimp, pistol shrimp, peppermint shrimp and other ornamental marine shrimp. Dose carefully, as invertebrates can be sensitive to rapid changes in water chemistry. Avoid combining iodine supplementation with other iodine-containing products unless testing confirms demand. Compatibility Advice Aquaforest Iodum can be used alongside other reef supplementation products when required, but it should be dosed separately and carefully. Do not mix with other supplements in the same container unless following a specific manufacturer dosing method. If using multiple trace element supplements, dose into a high-flow area and allow each product to disperse before adding another. Storage Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use. Keep out of reach of children. This product is intended for aquarium use only and should not be consumed.
