Captiv8 Reef BluePrint – Isol8:Ba (60 mL) — Ultra-Pure Barium (Ba) Trace Supplement for Marine/Reef

Overview

Maintain natural seawater–level barium with precision. Isol8:Ba is an ultra-pure, stabilized barium supplement designed for ICP-guided trace management within the Captiv8 BluePrint methodology. Used strictly at trace levels, it helps restore balanced seawater chemistry to support healthy calcifying communities and overall reef microbiome stability—without affecting nutrients or clarity.

Key Features

• ICP-driven micro-dosing for accurate correction of verified Ba deficits.

• High-purity, reef-safe formulation tailored for sensitive, low-nutrient systems.

• Consistent and predictable response when added in small, measured increments.

• BluePrint-ready—fits into Captiv8 scheduling alongside other Isol8 and Aragonite supplements.

• Doser-friendly for automated micro-additions after pump calibration.

Directions

1. Test first: Obtain a recent ICP report and confirm barium relative to your target.

2. Calculate dose: Use the label’s dose-to-ppb/µg·L⁻¹ relationship for your total system volume.

3. Split corrections: If a larger increase is required, divide into multiple micro-doses over several days.

4. Add in high flow (sump/overflow). Avoid direct contact with coral tissue.

5. Verify: Re-test with ICP on your normal cadence and transition to a small maintenance dose if ongoing uptake is observed.

6. Do not exceed label guidance—precision matters with trace elements.

Tip: Time additions shortly after water changes or fresh media swaps so contact time is consistent 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.

• Log every trace addition and align with your BluePrint routine.

• Avoid simultaneous use of strong oxidizers (peroxide/ozone) or heavy-metal removers immediately after dosing.

• If running new carbon/resins, dose after media changes for repeatable results.

Compatibility

• Safe for reef systems when used strictly at trace levels per testing and label guidance.

• Works alongside skimmers, carbon, phosphate media, bacterial programs, amino/trace blends, and refugia.

• Not a medication and not intended for non-aquarium use.
