These include iodide, iodate, molecular iodine and hypoiodite.\u003cbr\u003eGenerally when we say iodine we mean one or more iodine species without a clear distinction being made. NSW contains predominantly iodate and to a lesser extent iodide. There is however a misconception among many hobbyists that iodide predominates in NSW. Research by Salifert and universities has proved this to be untrue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Natural Iodine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSalifert's Natural Iodine supplement contains a large portion iodate and also some iodide in similar proportions as NSW.\u003cbr\u003eAll ingredients are of a pharmaceutical quality or even better. This ensures that no unwanted elements are added to your valuable aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther requirements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor excellent results try also our high-quality calcium, strontium, alkalinity and trace elements supplements.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirections:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShake before use.\u003cbr\u003eRegular maintenance:\u003cbr\u003eDose 5 ml per 100 liters (25 gallons) once every 2 or 3 weeks.\u003cbr\u003eAdjust dosage according to individual requirements (use an iodine test, e.g., Salifert’s Iodine Profi-Test). Every 5 ml per 100 litres (25 gallons) will increase the iodine concentration (that is iodide + iodate) by approx. 0.04 mg\/L.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep out of reach of children.
