My Tank Thread
No problem. This topic is awful. Heck, it took me 3 tries just to get the right numbers posted. I think that is why I sat on the information as long as I did instead of making a post earlier.Thank bud I didn't take the math the right way on a mildly caffinataed brain
Yes it makes perfect sense.
In the video he states it's a 20g tank. He doesn't ever state that it's only holding 16g of water. If he did that calculation it wasn't in the video that I saw. Per my math above if he did calculate 16.5g of water he did dose correct to Fritz and did come out at 1.14ppm which is close.
If he was dosing for 20g he dosed 4ml/g and undershot the formula of 5ml/g. Which curiously enough had he said a 20gL holds 20g and dosed the 25ml for 20g he would have come to 1.51mL/g which would have been the very bottom end of therapeutic range based on the fact that it holds 16.5G.
These copper test kits are very tough to read. It's amazing anyone can successfully use these copper products.
