How often should I perform an ICP test?
It is generally recommended to conduct an ICP test every 4 to 6 weeks, especially for high-demand reef systems. More frequent testing may be beneficial when establishing a new tank, troubleshooting coral health issues, or after major changes such as new livestock, dosing routines, or equipment upgrades.

Once the laboratory receives your sample, analysis typically takes 2 to 3 working days. You’ll be notified via email when your results are ready, and you can log in to your Reef Zlements account to view a full elemental report along with any necessary correction suggestions.

Can I test RO/DI water with Reef Zlements ICP kits?
Yes, certain versions of the test kits are specifically designed to include RO/DI analysis. Testing your RO/DI water helps identify whether your filtration system is introducing unwanted elements into your reef tank, which can be especially helpful when diagnosing persistent issues.
