So I was at reef stock and had ICP test my tank water. All my levels were good except three. Arsenic (As) was low at 0.003ppm, Iodine (I) was undetectable at 0.0ppm and my Calcium (Ca) was high at 495.98ppm. The Calcium is high due to the salt mix I’m using, Reef Crystals. I knew this was on the higher level as I test for it regularly. It looks like the average for Reef Crystals is around 490ppm when I mix it up.
I’m wondering if I should be concerned with any of these parameters? I guess I’m concerned about the Iodine levels for my shrimp as I understand they need it to molt.
What are the opinion’s of our club? Are you guys dosing Iodine? Should I be dosing Iodine? Should I change my salt mix to one with Iodine in the mix? Do you think I should be concerned with the Calcium and Arsenic levels.
Thanks for all the help!
