Since we do not know the depletion rate for bromide in aquaria, nor what particularly happens when it is elevated, it is hard to say if someone were to boost it a few percent each day whether that is OK. That might be OK, especially if a lot of macroalgae were converting the bromide to organic forms and those got exported by skimming or macroalgae harvesting.

But it is a fair question, and it is not clear that two parts made with the new material are necessarily unacceptable.
