Every time I have a ICP test done it says I have zero iodine in my tank I follow the instructions on every icp test but is always comes back zero anyone why this is? The carbon may be?

how long between tests? what you put in is just to get to how it should be. if you test once every month you can calculate how much you need to put in to keep it ok.
if you put it in and do another test it should be spot on.

i think a skimmer can remove iodine aswell but im not a 100% sure.

Hi,
carbon absorbs idione. the test tells you the daily dose amount. you can put iodine in core7 bottle 1. you have to daily dose idione, bacuae with tiron you run carbon 24/7. if you daily doese idione and its still 0 then i would double the dose.
