Reef Zlements Ni Nickel 150ml

Reef Zlements Ni Nickel 150ml is a premium trace element supplement designed specifically for marine and reef aquariums to restore and maintain optimal nickel levels. Nickel is a vital micronutrient found naturally in seawater at trace concentrations and plays an essential role in the biological processes of many marine organisms, including corals, algae, and beneficial bacteria.

Nickel functions primarily as a cofactor for various enzymes involved in key metabolic pathways such as nitrogen fixation and protein synthesis. It supports coral health by enhancing enzymatic activity and contributes to vibrant coloration, particularly in certain corals where trace metals influence pigmentation. In closed aquarium systems, nickel is often depleted quickly due to regular water changes, filtration, and uptake by corals and other organisms, making supplementation necessary to maintain a balanced and healthy environment.

Reef Zlements Ni Nickel 150ml is formulated to provide a precise, bioavailable source of nickel that allows reef keepers to replenish this essential trace element accurately, especially when guided by ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) water analysis testing. This ensures that nickel levels stay within the optimal range without the risk of overdosing, which could be harmful.

The product comes in a convenient 150ml bottle, with dosing instructions that make it easy to calculate the amount needed based on aquarium volume and current nickel concentrations. Typically, 1 ml of this supplement will increase nickel levels by approximately 2 µg/L in 100 liters of aquarium water. It is recommended to dose regularly as part of routine reef maintenance and after ICP test results indicate a deficiency.

Regular use of Reef Zlements Ni Nickel supports coral tissue growth, enzymatic efficiency, and overall reef vitality. It helps maintain the delicate balance of trace elements necessary for sustaining a thriving marine ecosystem, promoting healthier corals, enhanced pigmentation, and improved biological function.
