What one dose does
PARAMETER
1 ml / 100 L
Iodine
+0.0076 ppm
To raise iodine by 0.02 ppm in 100 L: 2.6 ml.
How it’s used
1 g KI to 1 L -> 764.5 mg/L I; 1 ml in 100 L adds 7.64 ug/L (ppb).
Cautions
• Natural seawater total iodine ~60 ug/L (0.06 ppm). 1 g KI in 100 L adds ~7,600 ug/L - more than 100x natural; ALWAYS use a dilute stock.
• Dose small daily/weekly amounts based on an iodine test; many reefers do fine without iodine dosing.
• Overdose can harm corals and invertebrates; never bolus.
