i don´t know if my calculations are correct. Tried the reef moonshiners calculator, but may i am easy distracted, it was too much informations for me at once.
My Question is.

I got my ICPs back and know how much Fluoride i need per day ( 0,014mg/L)

And i want to mix a ready to use Solution with a dispenser wich releases 2ml per push, i have a 100L tank.
I want to dose daily, so 2ml per day with 0,014mg/l, for 100L. i need 0,14mg Fluoride in the 2ml
The Mixing bootle contains 1000ml

So i multiply the 0,14mg with 500, so 70gr of Fluoride and 930ml of RoDi Water

So with one push (2ml) i will raise the fluoride by 0,014mg in a 100L Tank?

Is that correct or am i missing something. If it is too easy it is kinda suspicios to me :D
 
How are you deciding how much to dose after initially correcting the fluoride to NSW levels? One ICP test cannot provide that information.
 
Be careful with fluoride, IMO. It is toxic.

Backing up, you want to make a DIY dosing solution? From what solid material?
Sorry for the late reply.

I am aware that it is toxic, i will prepare myself properly for handling that stuff.

I want to make a all in one solution for my own tank with fluoride, iron, iodine and manganese. Mix everything in 1 Bottle.
For the dosing, with the 1 push (2ml) would be nice, but if it is more diluted it is also ok, just wanted to take the easiest way.
For mixing i would use the powdered chemicals as stated here in the forum

Except for the iron, i can only get

Don't know if it is useable or not, maybe you can help me with that.

I tracked my ICPs and saw my consumption of those elements and calculated my daily needs of those elements.
I am regularly doing ICP, but i am tired of dosing those stuff with the ATI boosters daily, specialy manganese ist still a such a small dosis for the daily need on a 330gal.
