Fauna Marin Elementals TRACE Co (Cobalt) 250 ml (15005)

• Cobalt is an essential element and occurs in reef aquariums almost exclusively in the form of vitamin B12.
• It is produced by symbiotic bacteria in the mucus layer of corals, but is also added to the aquarium via supply systems and feed.
• Too high a dosage of cobalt promotes the formation of cyanobacterial coatings and causes corals to darken.

Dosage:

• 1 ml Elementals Trace Co per 100 liters daily = +4 µg cobalt per liter

Dosage instructions:

• Maximum daily dosage + 1 µg cobalt per liter

ELEMENTALS TRACE Co is a highly concentrated cobalt solution for saltwater aquariums for individually compensating existing cobalt deficiencies.

• The Elementals series is designed for use with regular ICP analyses. Fauna Marin ICP analyses help you to maintain your aquarium perfectly.
• In addition to the measured values, Fauna Marin ICP analyses also provide you with all the necessary dosage recommendations. In addition to the salts of the major elements calcium, magnesium, and carbonate hardness, we also offer a range of special trace elements that are essential in saltwater aquariums. Unlike major elements such as calcium, magnesium, or potassium, trace elements are elements that are present in seawater in concentrations lower than 1 mg/l. These include, for example, copper, chromium, manganese, and selenium, but also iron, iodine, and zinc.
• The function of trace elements can vary greatly. In the knowledge database on the Fauna Marin website, you will find an overview of the respective function of the individual elements. Trace elements can be contained in many different substances and thus also enter the aquarium water; However, despite the low concentration required in the water, a deficiency can cause significant problems. An adequate supply of all important trace elements is therefore essential for a healthy reef aquarium.
• Our single-element solutions consist of the purest raw materials, which are produced with the appropriate organic or inorganic compounds depending on the function of the elements. For production and quality control, we use our coral farm and, of course, our own ICP laboratory.
