Cobalt is a trace element naturally present in seawater. Studies have shown its positive impact on the coloration and vitality of SPS and LPS corals when its concentration is maintained within an extremely narrow range. However, even a slight excess can become dangerous for the tank's organisms.
Cobalt dosing must be carried out with extreme caution. This product is strictly reserved for experienced aquarists with regular ICP-OES analyses.
It is imperative never to adjust multiple elements simultaneously to avoid chemical interactions between trace elements.
The product should be dosed in an area with strong water flow. A minimum delay of 5 minutes must be observed between adjustments of different elements.

This supplement is part of the TRITON method, based on complete water analysis by ICP-OES and individual element adjustment. Exact dosages should always be determined from the results of your latest ICP TRITON Lab test.
Any sudden variation in cobalt concentration can be harmful to the aquarium's inhabitants. Never overdose. In case of doubt, immediately stop the addition and perform a new ICP-OES analysis.
