Optional elements dosing frequency

[ReefPig]

Hello chaps,

Elements such as Iron, chromium, cobalt and a few others, they're below the LOD for ICP-OES, so you don't recommend dosage as part of the ICP results.

You provide separate instructions for these, as per below:

So this is 1ml per day?

Assume this applies to all of these additional elements, like chrome?

Separate, but related, question.
Fluorine, the instructions state that ICP will indicate if It should be dosed.
According to my ICP results, I cannot even see Fluorine being tested for, am I being thick?

@Julian@Triton any thoughts on this?

If you are using Core7 products then you are dosing these elements regularly anyway. Sometimes people want to dose additional amounts so we tell them to use the following dose rates:

Cr - 1ml/1000L/day

Fe - 1ml/500L/day

We don't test for or recommend dosage for Flourine anymore as Ehsan does not believe the benefits outweigh the risks. This information is very old and from back in the time when we did. Like always with TRITON we will not recommend products if we do not believe they are of benefit. We are not a Marketing Machine driven to sell a huge range of products to constantly increase our growth and profit margins. We seem to do quite well just being honest with people and selling products that are backed by extensive scientific research and the database acquired through over half a million tests worldwide over the past decade.

We sell this product because some of our customers believe it is beneficial and have been dosing it for many years. It is not something that we recommend that you dose. Again, if people feel the need they can dose TRITON Flourine according to the following:

10ml in 100L will do the following:
Raise F - 0.1mg/l

Hope that this information helps.
