Overview

Keep minor and trace elements on point with a coordinated program. The Isol8: Minor & Trace Element Pack bundles Captiv8’s ultra-pure trace solutions into a single, BluePrint-compatible kit for ICP-guided correction and steady maintenance dosing. Designed for modern, low-nutrient reefs, it helps sustain coloration, polyp vitality, enzyme function, and overall microbiome balance—without impacting clarity or major-ion stability.

Key Features

  • Complete trace coverage — Curated set of minor & trace ions to address common seawater deficits.

  • ICP-driven workflow — Calibrate corrections with lab results, then transition to predictable maintenance.

  • High-purity formulations — Ultra-low contaminants for sensitive SPS/LPS and mixed reefs.

  • BluePrint-ready — Fits directly into Captiv8 schedules alongside Isol8:Ca / Isol8:K / Isol8:Mg and Aragonite components.

  • Doser-friendly — Consistent strengths for micro-additions via calibrated pumps.

Directions

  1. Test first: Obtain current ICP results and identify any out-of-range elements.

  2. Plan corrections: Use each bottle’s dose-to-ppb/µg·L⁻¹ relationship for your total system volume.

  3. Split large adjustments: Add in multiple small doses over 24–72 hours rather than one addition.

  4. Maintenance: After reaching targets, begin low daily/weekly micro-doses per BluePrint guidance; re-check ICP on your normal cadence.

  5. Dosing technique: Add in high flow (sump/overflow). Do not mix concentrates together in the same container.

Tip: Time trace additions after water changes or fresh media swaps for consistent contact time before export.

Best Practices

  • Keep core parameters steady: Alk 7.5–9 dKH, Ca 420–450 ppm, Mg 1280–1380 ppm, Salinity 1.025–1.026, Temp 77–79°F (25–26°C).

  • Log every addition; small, regular doses yield more stable results than sporadic large ones.

  • Avoid dosing directly alongside strong oxidizers or metal-removal resins; space by at least several hours.

  • If running aggressive chemical media, dose traces after media changes.

Compatibility

  • Safe for SPS/LPS/soft coral systems when used strictly at trace levels per testing and label guidance.

  • Works alongside skimmers, carbon, PO₄ media, refugia, and bacterial programs (dose at different times).

  • Complements major-ion management via two-part, kalkwasser, or calcium reactors.
