Vanadium Lab 200ml

Vanadium Lab is a single-element trace supplement from Aquaforest's Lab line, intended for reef aquariums where vanadium levels need to be raised in a controlled way. It suits hobbyists who test their water and want to correct a measured deficiency rather than dose by guesswork.

Why it matters

• Enzyme activation: vanadium acts as an activator of enzymes in the water-column chemistry relevant to the reef system.
• Carbohydrate metabolism: the element takes part in carbohydrate metabolism within the tank's organisms.
• Skeletal mineralization: it is involved in mineralization of skeletons, which is relevant for corals.
• Predictable dosing: 1 ml raises vanadium by 0.001 mg/l (ppm) per 100 l, so the increase can be calculated for a given volume.

What it works with

The product is designed for reef aquariums with corals, where trace element levels are managed through regular testing. The manufacturer recommends dosing based on ICP-OES results, and the 0.001 mg/l per 1 ml per 100 l ratio provides a basis for calculating the amount for a specific tank volume.
