Reef Essential® Signature Series™ / Vanadium

Signature Series™ · Single-Element Precision

Vanadium — for when your ICP test says you're low.

Ultra-pure, ICP-OES tested vanadium on its own — for correcting a specific deficiency your water test just flagged, not for routine blanket dosing.

Why vanadium, specifically

What this element is actually doing in your tank, in plain terms.

WHY IT MATTERS

A third chlorophyll cofactor

Vanadium is a key constituent in the formation of chlorophyll found in zooxanthellae, rounding out the trace-metal trio (with iron and manganese) that photosynthesis depends on.

THE PROCESS

Macroalgae & nutrient export

Vanadium also aids macroalgae growth, which naturally reduces unwanted nutrients in the aquarium while providing oxygen, expelling carbon dioxide, and improving pH stability.

WHO NEEDS MORE

Photosynthetic corals & refugiums

Dense zooxanthellae populations in many LPS and SPS species lean on vanadium alongside iron and manganese for the same photosynthetic pathway.

When to reach for Vanadium specifically

Single-element dosing is precision correction, not a routine — here's how to tell if this is the bottle you need.

USE THIS WHEN
Your ICP test flags low vanadium specifically

Signature Series products exist to correct one number at a time — dose based on your actual test result, not a guess.

CONSIDER INSTEAD
A blended maintenance product instead

Bio-Metals™ (Step 4) already carries vanadium alongside iron, manganese and molybdenum as a routine-maintenance blend — better than single-element dosing for ongoing upkeep.

Dosing

Dose according to your ICP test result, not on a fixed schedule.

What you're doing Effect
Per 100L (26 US gal) dosed 1 mL raises Vanadium by 0.001 ppm
Recommended pacing Spread the correction over at least 1 week
Target concentration 0.03 – 0.09 ppm

Questions about this product

Do I need to test before dosing this?+
Yes — Signature Series products are built to correct a specific deficiency your ICP test identifies. Dosing without a baseline test risks overshooting the target range.
How is this different from the vanadium in Bio-Metals™?+
Bio-Metals™ (Step 4) carries vanadium alongside iron, manganese and molybdenum for routine coral-color maintenance. This is pure, single-element vanadium for correcting one specific ICP result without moving the others.
Can I use this after any ICP test, or only Quantum's?+
This product can be used after any ICP test you've purchased — it's not tied to a specific testing service. The Quantum Aqua app helps calculate your dose from the result.
What's actually in the bottle?+
Ultra-pure vanadium and nothing else — formulated under controlled lab conditions with every batch ICP-OES tested for accuracy.
