Which trace elements deplete daily?

[Acrofiend]

As title is stated. I think iodine is one but curious which others deplete daily?

Ideally none of them "deplete" daily, but several can get close to it.

I dose the following daily: iron, manganese, iodide, chrome, selenium, copper, nickel.

I send out a monthly ICP-MS test to keep these in a specific, detectible range.

This will depend of types of and amount of coral and their consumption. If any , would be trace elements.

I dose small volume potassium and iodide with good response from mixed reef coral. I don't test the labs.

Potassium may or may not deplete at all. It never did in my tank. It depends on the relative amounts in the foods and new organism tissues.

Iron and manganese are two trace elements that can deplete rapidly.
