Reef Sanctuary - View Single Post - How often do fire cleaner shrimp shed?

Am I totally wrong or doesn't the IODINE change chemically within the shrimp? Doesn't it have to be broken down and "Reconstituted" to be able to be "taken up" again by another animal?

Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change.
Allen's home-made formula...(-NO3=WC%)
This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%.
