Enhanced Metabolic Support. Enzyme Activation. ICP-Guided Trace Stability.

Molybdenum (Mo) is a key trace element involved in enzymatic processes within reef aquariums. It plays a role in supporting coral metabolic function and is used by beneficial bacteria involved in nutrient processing, particularly in systems with high biological activity or ICP-guided trace correction programs.

In actively managed SPS and mixed reef systems, molybdenum depletion is frequently observed in ICP analysis, especially in ultra-low nutrient environments or tanks with strong export methods.

Why Molybdenum Matters

Molybdenum acts as a cofactor for essential metabolic and bacterial enzyme reactions, particularly those involved in nutrient reduction pathways. When ICP results confirm a deficit, restoring molybdenum can support overall coral vitality, metabolic efficiency, and trace balance within structured dosing regimes.

Dosing Guidance

Oceamo Single Element Molybdenum offers precise micro-dosing capability for safe ICP correction:

• 1 ml / 100 L = +2 µg/L (ppb)

• Maximum daily increase: 2 µg/L (1 ml / 100 L daily)

  Why Choose Oceamo Molybdenum

  • Precision-balanced concentration ideal for controlled ICP-guided dosing

  • Pharmaceutical-grade purity, from high-quality raw materials

  • Developed and batch-tested in Oceamo’s dedicated Austrian laboratory

  • Suitable for long-term stability and fine control in SPS and trace-balanced systems

  • Trusted by advanced reefkeepers who require measurable results, not guesswork

  When metabolic trace balance matters, Oceamo delivers accuracy, purity, and consistency.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is molybdenum important in reef aquariums?
   It supports coral metabolic processes and aids bacterial trace function in nutrient pathways, helping stabilise biological performance under ICP-guided management.

2. When should I dose molybdenum?
   Only when ICP results indicate a deficit. It is typically corrected gradually as part of an overall trace stability plan.

3. Can I overdose molybdenum?
   Yes – like all trace elements, it must be dosed carefully. Follow ICP guidance and do not exceed Oceamo’s maximum daily increase.
