3a and 3b in powder form?

[nbd13]

Hi,

Just got my 1-3b in to start triton method. 3a and 3b are in powder form?

Do i have to add ro/di water to them? Or what gives? Got them from BRS they are at room temp for over 4 days now.

Thanks

What about for part 1 and 2? Just add those start out of the bottle?

Yes I know it reads on the container itself "Requires no mixing with RO/DI water"
That is false.
Go here to the Triton page for proper instruction. https://www.triton-reagents.de/en/products/corechem/core7/core7-new-media/

There is or should have been a pamphlet accompanying the product, that explains this.
I don't know why the container says no mixing.

Yes 1 and 2 are ready to go ...3a and 3b are in powder form because the alk affects the glue in the packaging when pre mixed ..so make sure you pour your 3a and 3b into a dosing container when mixed

My display tank is 150 gallons. How much should I start with?

10ml per 100L

150 gallons = 567 Liters / 100 = 5.67 ml per day?

Thanks

Yes that seems like a good place too start . ...but if you have 3a and 3b together in 1 dosing container then 11.64 ml ...and mag and calc 5.67ml each
