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

Overview

Maintain nickel (Ni) at true trace levels for balanced reef microbiology and enzyme cofactor activity. Isol8:Ni is an ultra-pure, stabilized nickel supplement engineered for ICP-guided trace management within the Captiv8 BluePrint methodology. Precise micro-dosing supports healthy biochemical pathways—without impacting nutrients or water clarity.

Key Features

• ICP-driven micro-dosing to correct verified Ni deficits accurately.

• High-purity, reef-safe formulation suited to sensitive, low-nutrient systems.

• Predictable response when added in small, controlled increments.

• BluePrint-ready—integrates cleanly with other Isol8 traces and major-ion programs.

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

Directions

1. Test first: Obtain a recent ICP analysis and compare nickel to your target range.

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

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

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

5. Verify & maintain: Re-test on your normal ICP cadence and convert to a small maintenance dose if ongoing uptake persists.

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

Tip: Dose 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 trace addition; small, regular doses are more stable than occasional large ones.

• Avoid simultaneous dosing with strong oxidizers or metal-removal resins; space by several hours.

Compatibility

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

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

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