Iodine (or even iodine) is extremely important for most reef dwellers, in particular iris need it to maintain cell functions. The iodine concentration in the world's oceans is between 0.025 - 0.064 mg / l.

A post dosing with iodine can improve an iodine deficiency visibly in many corals after two weeks. Xenien and bladder corals especially show an increased growth with an adequate supply of iodine.
