Interesting triton results. System runs marinepure, UV, GFO, ATS.

Salts used are are seachmen aquavitro salinity and Fritz RPM. (About to try live aquaria)

I went 3ish weeks without a water change prior to sending the sample in. My main goal was to test Aluminum levels due to marinepure. The marinepure in this system is 2 years old. This aquarium was reset during a move ~1 year ago.

AL was fine.
Tin as a little high, to be expected due to newish PVC
Boron was elevated, 7.7 ppm, setpoint is 4.5ppm
Lithium was low at 80 mics/l with setpoint at 200
Vanadium was off the charts, literally, 135 mics with setpoint at 1.2 mics
Iodine was not present, sigh, gotta dose iodine and that test is a PITA.
Does anyone know the cause and or effect of high Vanadium or Boron?

Thanks
Jason
 
Does Triton have a forum? If so i cant seem to find it, or is there a subforum on R2R that i missed?
Thanks

Why thank you, I apologize for putting this post in the wrong forum!
I wonder if its possible for an admin to move the post, or delete.
