We detected elements in your water that can be harmful for your tank.
More information about each element is listed below.
To remedy this we recommend carrying out 6 x 15% water changes Red Sea Salt (blue bucket), spread over 6 weeks
Cu
The analysis has found an elevated level of Copper in the aquarium.
This could be the result of fish medication.
For your chosen Habitat this is not of concern unless it reaches levels higher than 100ppb
Countermeasure: TRITON DETOX should be applied before the water changes.
Application DETOX: Take activated carbon and Phosphate media out of the system, add 3ml Detox / 100l of aquarium water. After 3 days, put on fresh activated carbon (Phosphate media can now also be introduced again), activated carbon should be changed after 7 days.
Al
Low levels of Aluminium have been found in your system.
Although not as dangerous at very low levels it is important that you check your system for any possible contaminations. To assist you in finding the source of error, we have listed them the most common sources of aluminium (sorted in descending order of frequency):
1. Aluminium based Phosphate remover
2. Zeolite
3. Metals in water
Use ROWAphos or Phosban phosphate remover media to remove the aluminium.
P
Your Phosphorus / phosphate levels are too high.
Check for possible contamination source. To help you in your search for the source of error, we have listed the most common reasons (sorted in descending order of frequency):
1. Overfeeding, especially with dry food or not washed-frozen foods
2. No Phosphate Remover in the system
3. Too much vegetable food
4. Too little flow, "Gammel corners" in the aquarium
5. Weak filtration / skimming
6. use of supplements to increase nutrients
Renew or increase PO4 media, feed less, wash frozen food, avoid dried foods (flakes or pellets)
Ba
Your Barium levels are slightly elevated.
Check for possible contamination source. To help you in your search for the source of error, we have listed the most common sources of Barium (sorted in descending order of frequency):
1. Phosphate iron-based (except ROWAphos or PhosBan)
2. Contaminated salts
3. Contaminated trace elements, in particular strontium
4. Dried fishfood
Monitor with future ICP-OES tests.
Use TRITON AL99 PO4 remover to remove Barium
Fe
Your Iron levels are too high.
Check for possible contamination source. To help you in finding the source of error, we have listed them the most common sources of iron (sorted in descending order of frequency):
1. Trace element overdose / contamination
2. Metals near or in the aquarium (as rusty clamps or screws)
3. Iron based Phosphate remover (too much flow in reactor)
4. Low pH in the aquarium
Zn
Your Zinc levels are too high.
Check for possible contamination source. To assist you in finding the source of error, we have listed the most common sources of zinc (sorted in descending order of frequency):
1. Contaminated trace elements
2. Hand Cream applied before working in the aquarium
3. Contaminated salts
Mo
Your Molybdenum levels are slightly elevated. This can lead to severe bacterial growth (Cyano, etc.).
Check for possible contamination source. To assist you in finding the source of error, we have listed them the most common sources of molybdenum (sorted in descending order of frequency):
1. Trace element overdose / contamination
2. Food
3. Contaminated salts
To remedy this we recommend carrying out 6 x 15% water changes Red Sea Salt (blue bucket), spread over 6 weeks
Li
Your Lithium levels are slightly low.
Please dose as recommended in the DOSE tab.
Br
Your Bromine levels are slightly low.
WARNING! Dosage only to be carried out by advanced reef keepers.
Due to the possible hazardous nature of dosing Bromine the dosage amounts include a safety factor to ensure that the risk of overdose is reduced. This may result in further dosing being required with subsequent ICP testing.
Please follow the directions on the Dose tab.
Cu
We have detected copper in your aquarium, this can be a dangerous metal for reef aquariums. Please try to find the reason for the contamination.
To help you in your search for the source of error, we have listed them the most common sources of copper (sorted in descending order of frequency):
1. Contaminated trace element solutions
2. Bio-pellets
3. Contaminated salts
4. Contaminated food
5. Corroding metals or magnets near the water
Countermeasure: TRITON DETOX should be applied before the water changes.
Application DETOX: Take activated carbon and Phosphate media out of the system, add 3ml Detox / 100l of aquarium water. After 3 days, put on fresh activated carbon (Phosphate media can now also be introduced again), activated carbon should be changed after 7 days.
La
High levels of Lanthanum have been found in your system.
As Lanthanum can be very dangerous to you aquarium you should first try to find the contamination source. To assist you in finding the source of error, we have listed the most common sources of Lanthanum (sorted in descending order of frequency):
1. Using liquid Phosphate remover
2. Trace Element overdose / contamination
3. Food
Important for your aquarium
I
We have detected a lack of iodine.
A Iodine dose can have the following benefits for your aquarium:
- Improves overall health of SPS corals and macroalgae
- Promotes metabolic processes in the reef aquarium
- Can be helpful against parasites and inhibit their reproduction
To restore the natural value, please refer to our recommended dosage.
We recommend the corrective dosage of 0.82ml for 1 day.
We recommend a daily maintenance dose of 0.08ml. If this dose is very low, then this can be alternatively be dosed weekly (daily dose x7).
Fine-tuning Level 1 ( Basic )
V
We have detected a lack of vanadium.
A vanadium dosage may have the following advantages for your aquarium:
- Can have a positive effect on the growth of sponges, sea squirts and SPS and LPS corals
- Can promote a better polyp extension
- May intensify the color of Acropora and Montipora
To restore the natural value, please note our dosing recommendation.
To keep this value, please note our maintenance dose. For calculating the maintenance dose proceed as follows:
1st Test: dose maintenance dose xml
2nd Test: old maintenance dosing xml (from the 1st test) + new maintenance dose meter (from the 2nd test) XML.
3. Test:: old maintenance dosing xml (from the 1st test) + old maintenance dosing xml (from the 2nd test) + new maintenance dose xml meter (from the 3rd Test).
4. Test: see above. Thereafter, the dosage should not be increased, even though the analysis indicates a value of 0.
We recommend the corrective dosage of 0.41ml for 1 day.
We recommend a daily maintenance dose of 0.03ml. If this dose is very low, then this can be alternatively be dosed weekly (daily dose x7).
Fine-tuning Level 1 ( Advanced )
Ni
Warning, dangerous element for the aquarium. Dosage for professional, experienced aquarists only!
A nickel dose may have the following advantages for your aquarium:
- Can improve the color image of coral
- Can improve the overall health of LPS and SPS corals
Attention, the concentration of nickel in natural seawater is so low that it can not be detected. If a dose is desired, begin with the recommended dosage listed below and test the value regularly in our laboratory. If nickel are detected, they have overdosed and should adjust the dose immediately. You can increase the dosage of nickel slowly until they see a positive effect.
We recommend the corrective dosage be carried out over 2 days. For the first day the dosage should be 6.82ml. On the last day please use 0.37ml.
Cr
Warning: Potentially hazardous element for aquariums. For professional and experienced aquarists only.
Chromium dosing may provide the following potential benefits in reef aquariums:
1. May enhance coral coloration
2. May support calcification and therefore promote coral growth
Important: The natural concentration of chromium in seawater is extremely low and typically below detectable limits.
If you decide to dose chromium, start strictly with the recommended dosage listed below and regularly test your water through our laboratory.
If chromium becomes detectable in your test results, this indicates that the element has been overdosed and the dosage should be reduced immediately.
If desired, the dosage can then be increased very slowly over time until a positive effect is observed.
We recommend the corrective dosage be carried out over 33 days. For the first 32 days the daily dosage should be 0.08525ml.
