Looking for the ideal level for iodine dosing. My tank is heavily populated with zoos, mushrooms, and other coral. I was adding an iodine supplement but stopped because I have been told over dosing will have an adverse effect on my invertibrets. I purchased a test kit and my iodine level was 0. I have dosed and brought the level up to .05. My replacement/water change tested at .06.
So the question is I am presently doing a 15 gallon water change once every two weeks on a 75 gallon tank and without supplementing my iodine was 0. Does iodine disipate on its own or is the coral load consuming it. Finally what is the maximum safe iodine level for a reef tank.
current water test:
ph 8.0
calcium 400
nitrate 2
phosphate 0
amm 0
nitrite 0
