ICP test - A few low trace elements.

kilnakorr · Nov 28, 2024

I did an ICP for the time in 6 months or so.
Pretty decent numbers, but windering if I should bother adding the few missing/low elements:

Boron
Vanadium
Sulphur
cobolt
chromium

Test can be seen here:

Test wody #3720213

W celu zapewnienia właściwej suplementacji, poziomu mikroelementów i pierwiastków konieczne jest okresowe badanie wody. Badanie ICP-OES pozwala również poznać poziomy substancji toksycznych i szkodliwych.

Sulfur is almost on their target, and is a major element. No concern there.
Co, Cr, V could be depleted or at normal levels. Hard for ICP-OES to detect down there. Dose if you want, but that test doesn't necessarily mean it's a concern
Boron, fine to correct 3.2 up to 4-5ppm but that's not really critical, IMO.

I agree.

Thanks for your input.
I see no issues with the tank, so probably won't bother dosing any.
I have some mixes at hand, but they contain iodine which I seem to have plenty of already.
