Hello Randy,
This is my first time making my own additive solution. After reading your different postings, here are what I am about to purchase & solution proportions. Can you please check if the following are correct? Will dosing these adding more Sodium ( or Sulfur in case of Manganese) to the tank? Do you have any recommendation on the dissolve amount? Should I store them in glass bottle or plastic bottle? Thanks so much for your help!
1. Boron

Boron is 11.3% by weight. Dissolve 1 gram in 1000 mL RO/Di. Concentration is 113 mg/L or 0.113 mg/mL. Adding 1 mL per 100 gallons boosts Boron by 0.113 mg/378 L = 0.00029 mg/L.
2. Bromine

Bromine is 77.7% by weight. Dissolve 1 gram in 1000 mL RO/Di. Concentration is 777 mg/L or 0.777 mg/mL. Adding 1 mL per 100 gallons boosts Bromine by 0.777 mg/378 L = 0.00205 mg/L.
3.Manganese
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SXZV2BA/ref=ox_sc_act_title_5?smid=A224H40ZI0MLC0&psc=1
Manganese is 32% by weight. Dissolve 1 gram in 1000 mL RO/Di. Concentration is 320 mg/L or 0.32 mg/mL. Adding 1 mL per 100 gallons boosts Manganese by 0.32 mg/378 L = 0.00084 mg/L.
4.Molybdate
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L21B9DS/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_1?smid=A23XB2IU56PL57&psc=1
Molybdate is 39.5% by weight. Dissolve 1 gram in 1000 mL RO/Di. Concentration is 395 mg/L or 0.395 mg/mL. Adding 1 mL per 100 gallons boosts Molybdate is by 0.395 mg/378 L = 0.00104 mg/L.
