Seachem Reef Iodide Supplement for Reef Aquariums
Seachem Reef Iodide is a concentrated (8,000 mg/L) stabilized potassium iodide source for reef aquaria that will restore and maintain iodide levels to those found in natural sea water.
It is formulated to provide a safe source of iodide that will not convert to toxic free iodine under storage or reef conditions.
Iodine is as toxic as chlorine and should never be used in a reef system. However, iodide is as safe as chloride.
Iodide is an important element required by invertebrates and many soft corals (gorgonians, sarcophytons, etc).

I’ve been using this supplement for three months now and my soft corals have shown better coloration and growth. The product is easy to mix and the instructions are clear. No issues with my tank’s inhabitants so far.

It works well for maintaining iodide levels. I test my water every two weeks and it stays stable. My gorgonians have grown more vibrant since I started using it.

Great product. I was worried about iodine toxicity, but this is safe and effective. My tank has been stable with no signs of stress in the invertebrates.
