Iodum is a concentrated iodine supplement, a crucial element for general cell functioning and nutrient transport. This element plays key roles in health for marine invertebrates. Iodine is used by corals for synthesizing pigments which allow them to adapt to variable lighting conditions and protect themselves from UV radiation. It also intensifies dark blue and purple coloration in hard corals. For shrimp, appropriate iodine levels are important to support proper molting. Because this element is constantly consumed by marine tank inhabitants, it is important to supplement it regularly to keep levels as close to natural seawater as possible.

- Concentrated pure iodine supplement
- Increases dark blue and purple coloration in hard corals.
Supplement containing concentrated iodine. In marine aquariums iodine is crucial for general cell functioning and the transfer of nutrients between them. Iodine is constantly consumed by tank inhabitants, therefore, without supplementation its level drops quickly. Iodine is used by corals for synthesizing pigments which allow them to adapt to variable lighting conditions and protect the fragile coral tissues from UV radiation. Iodine intensifies dark blue and purple colouration of hard corals. Appropriate iodine content in seawater tank supports shrimp molting. Regular dosage of Iodum keeps iodine content at the same level as in natural seawater.

10 ml of the product increases the iodine level by 0.1 mg/l (ppm) in 100 litres (27 US gal) of water. Recommended level: 0.055 – 0.07 mg/l (ppm). Please remember, that maximum safe daily dose is 2 ml per 100 litres of water. If you need a higher dose, split it into a few days. Recommended dosage: 1 ml/100 l (27 US gal) of water daily
