yep. How ur zoos doing? all open? the two i got from creetin open up very nicely liao. the one i give u how? ok or not? haha. i think my coral beauty decide to suddenly like eating zoos...i keep finding one or two polyp with missing skirts

[Creetin]

both also can. usually those iodine suppliment will contain both. its just different ionic form of iodine. iodine is I2, iodide is I- becareful with dosing. overdose will lead to algae bloom. follow the instructions nice blueish looking zoos.

be careful with iodine...overdose can reverse the good... u will see your corals wont open up so well

please factor in your water changes. iodine as with other trace elements are present in saltwater, when u change SW u replenish them as well. very often a water change can provide sufficient levels of such trace elements... plus iodine from what i read is not an element used very quicky in a reef tank... plus i dont think we are keen to measure iodine levels anyway haha so dose with caution. less is more

[peacemaker]

How bout reading this article on water perimeters? Iodine is being mentioned here.

[pauline]

the red one i get also open up le..but only the small small frags haven open yet..maybe because i manhandled them too roughly just now

been trying to glue all of them together..

I agree with Creetin... becareful of Iodine dosing.. my cynarina and prata does not seem like it...

eh bro what brand of iodide u dosing so far i been using most of e brands...

u must b aware of what u dosing hv effect on other minerals

like iodide for e 2 little bottles zoxan2 aquapharm brand it depletes ur MG

it may seems tht u hv over dose ur iodide but if u counter it with topping up e Mg level its generally ok...

ur cyna n prata prob more likely cause by calcium n kalwaser prob lehz..

calcium n kalwaser almost or little effect on soft corals..

sis pauline if u dose iodide very consistently b prepare get a better skimmer

actually e whole prob of dosing iodide or vit c too much is the encouragement growth of algae pores n skim mate...

skimmate prob u may get a better skimmer but if u get alot of algae pores u find tht ur tank side glass algae growth increasingly fast.. (seems like u just washed ur fishtank last wk only.. -__-!!..)

however due to over great invention by santa monica "algae scrubber" it really traps e algae pores n also remove e phosphate with e growth of algae not in the main tank. (a really cheap n gd device to DIY)

his thrend under general reefing.. lots of reefer hv tried his methods..

[pauline]

hmm..now the algae prob still nt so jialat..maybe when bloom den deal with it

paiseh, hit the buttons too many times liao..com too lag

[ambystoma82]

lolx i thought hw come all same..

of cus treat ur corals same as humans

takes time to adapt to whatever u r dosing

always from small dosage start 1st even though there is no visible diff in growth..

but at least its better than having visible diff in damage...
