Fauna Marin ICP Consulting

We provide a free service to all Fauna Marin ICP UK and US customers to provide a very basic 3 or 4 point overview of our thoughts on your ICP results, these often include important pointers that are may not be immediately obvious on first glance.  If you require further detail, instruction or deeper analysis or diagnosis then we offer the following services:



- A more detailed 20 minute analysis where we provide more structured explanation and precise recommendations (there is a small fee for this, booked through this website). Use this service for detailed dosing recommendations, chemistry issues, explanations of reef care processes.There is a choice of email response or phone call.


- a 60 minute consultation for diagnosis of issues, this may involve some questions by email and if often undertaken over the phone. This consultation may cover areas outside the remit of Fauna Marin products. Use this service for resolving algae issues, coral mortality, growth issues, pest control, pH management, stability issue and other such major issues.


Consultations can be booked from our webstore here:




If purchasing a Fauna Marin product (from this website) as a result of the consultation then we will offer a discount code to our consulting customers.


I am Doug Dorrat, a certified Fauna Marin ICP consultant. I started reefing in 1987 and have been a professional coral farmer since 2016 when Frag Farm was founded. As a Fauna Marin consultant I have seen many thousand ICP results and have a lot of experience of both the practical and scientific aspects of reef keeping. I also co-developed the Bolus Method with Fauna Marin with whom I work very closely.


In addition, I have direct access to the lab resources in Fauna Marin HQ in Germany where there is a vast amount of knowledge from professional chemists and biologists. Fauna Marin is the leading ICP lab with the greatest ICP knowledge base and practical experience of coral care.
