2024年1月11日 · 2. For major ions, the concentration does not vary by location or depth in the oceans. The only significant variation in major ion concentration comes as the salinity changes. Trace elements, however, are different, and can vary considerably by location and depth. Some are surface depleted. Some are depleted deeper down.

2024年12月15日 · Trace elements dosing does not have to be expensive; I split mine between 50% Blue Treasure, 50% Tropic Main Elements A+ & K-. This costs me about £85 per year. When you consider most people who add TE do so because they’re not water changing much (if at all), then the savings on salt balance out the TE costs…

2015年10月19日 · Bottom line is trace elements shouldn't be necessary if you're doing water changes frequently enough. I dosed Kent's Essential Elements for awhile with no discernible benefit. The coral I had that were struggling showed no difference either way.

2024年1月11日 · 3. All organisms need a number of trace elements for a wide range of biochemical processes. These include iron, copper, zinc, manganese, vanadium and molybdenum. Some trace elements are purely a toxicity concern, including mercury, lead, and cadmium. Many are needed at one concentration and are toxic at higher concentration (e.g., …

2018年11月12日 · I don’t do water changes so dosing trace elements in my case is really important . I dose Red Sea abcd, started around 6+ months ago, dosed other types of trace elements before switching.My corals have never looked or grown better than before the switch, took around 2 months before I started really noticing all the corals responding positively.

2024年3月6日 · RS trace elements a: iodine, bromine and fluoride; RS trace elements b: potassium and boron; RS trace elements c: iron and some other traces of green colors; RS trace elements d: bioactive elements for purple blue colors; Magnesium; Complete KH dosing with TM AFR once at 8:00. Can some trace elements be mixed to save dosing heads? Any ...

2020年8月7日 · Dosing trace elements is a way to maintain them. The dosing can be calibrated to the consumption of ALK or Ca. Of course, that is assuming that Ca or ALK consumption track trace element consumption. But it just does not seem to be feasible to base trace element dosing on measuring trace elements. So any trace element dosing is by guess and by gosh.

2018年9月9日 · If no water is removed from the system, then adding as little NaCL would save costs on the long run for the replacement of trace elements. E.g. currently for every 2 liters stock solution, I need to replace 2.5L tank water worth of trace elements. Calciumhydroxide would be ideal as it does not add salinity.

2014年1月21日 · There’s no way AFR or any method that ties alk dosing to trace elements can ensure all tanks get adequate trace elements from it. The issue is that across all reef tanks, there is likely little relationship between alk consumption and trace element consumption since some users of trace elements use alk (hard corals, clams, coralline algae ...

2021年7月16日 · This one seems to suggest it actually boosts trace elements beyond the minimal effect of Balling: Component 1+, 2+, 3+ Bundle By far one of the easiest ways to dose balanced solutions calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium along with all other major and minor elements corals will need for health and vitality.
