Iodine Allergy Question

[PrettyFish]

Hi.
I am allergic to Iodine and I understand some Corals need Iodine. I wonder if anyone knows if I'd have a problem when I poor anything with Iodine into my tank?

There is no need to dose any iodine into your tank. Your salt mix will replace iodine in trace amounts during each wc.

I thought that was the case, but was starting to research, thank you. Now, I won't worry about my allergy.

Yep no problem

As a matter of fact most salt mixes will take care of most if not all trace elements that need replenishing.

I have never seen a system that was low on iodine if frequent water exchanges are maintained. Funny thing is my Hanna iodine test goes to 0.0ppm and natural iodine levels are below this.

Good to know.
