Micro E 10ml

Micro E is a trace element supplement for marine reef aquarists who keep corals and need to replace the metals that coral tissue uses but that are present in seawater only in very small amounts. It is dosed as a routine part of maintenance in reef systems.

Why it matters

• The formula contains manganese, vanadium, zinc, nickel, iron, chromium, cobalt and copper, which the supplier describes as essential for coral husbandry.
• Dosing is set at 1 drop per 100 litres per day, so the product can be matched to the system volume.
• Corals kept with regular supplementation are described by the manufacturer as showing more saturated colouration and better overall condition.
• Strong protein skimmers remove these metals from the water while they run, so the supplement needs to be topped up consistently to offset that loss.

What it works with

Micro E is intended for marine reef tanks with coral livestock. Dosing scales with system volume at 1 drop per 100 litres per day, so the same bottle serves aquariums of different sizes. Because protein skimming removes these metals, the supplement is best used alongside a skimmer with a regular dosing routine.
