My 2 cents ? Send this to Patrick Foster over at Atoll, he will make for you a custom 2 part solutoin for you reef tank based on the size. By far the easiest way to correct all levels

Not too many issues. Fluorine and iron have been consistently low. It’s a 8 month old sps tank. This is 2nd icp in two months. I corrected everything. But I’m not sure how to keep the iron and fluorine up by dosing. I have the ati chemicals for them. Ati recommendations say how much to add to correct it but idk how much to keep it corrected. Or how to test more often. I use All for Reef. Manganese also

Iron is one of those trace elements that are taken up very fast and can even become a limiting factor in the ocean. It has to be added very frequently, preferably daily. ATI offers "Daily Traces" (A & B), but there are many other solutions available containing trace elements that deplete quickly. Iron is just one of the extreme cases because it's natural concentration is so low but the demand is high.
