What is the difference between ICP ICP-MS and the Oceamo ICP-MS test? Does one cover more elements? There’s not much description in either.

yes

 

[OutColdCRNA]

yes. get onto the facebook page, it's mentioned numerous times there.

Gotcha, so the gist I got was to put 0 in for the daily elements and start with what the calculator says as it will more than likely be the same after my ICP results come back?

So been shining for about two weeks! Have started to see color coming back to my few pale acros. Keeping a tighter control on nutrients as well. Been doing the dailies and just finished my first replacement elements. Things are looking up!

All that said, does anyone know what the Acro on the sticker of the oceamo icp test is?

 

[Randy Holmes-Farley]

DSR dose only follwing nothing else:

Calcium

Magnesium

Potassium Strontium Boron Iodide Manganese Iron they not dose: Cobalt Chromium Vanadium Bromine Fluoride Barium Molybdenum Nickel Zinc Tin rubidium selen cupper lithium

Well, I quoted directly from the dsr web site that they test and dose 12 elements.

Either you or their web site are wrong.

Just sent in my second test! Loving the program. My acros are coloring up wonderfully. Zoas are slowly starting to show some growth. Been dosing nitrate and phos to keep in range. Now battling some hair algae. Tank is still fairly new so I’m not worried about it. Can’t wait to see what this next test comes in at. Still wondering what the acro is on the front of the test kit.

I also have just started the program. Not seeing any changes yet but it’s only been a couple weeks. Sending my second test out next week.

Ok, then he writes different things different places about what he does, since you can obviously see where I got it directly from his site.

Got the results from my second test. I can’t input them into the excel spreadsheet. Do you have to have an active office subscription to be able to input into an existing spreadsheet?

You can use google docs to open it

I am starting out on the RM method. I have left over bottles of triton fluorine, ati Mn, ATI V and ATI Brom
Are the concentrations and dosing amounts similar to using the RM elements? Would prefer not to buy elements I already have. Thanks for your thoughts

If i am correct Triton are pretty much the same, i did the calculations years ago and have used Triton when it was cheaper for me, ATI was super weak compared to Moonshiners for everything i calculated

Good info, thanks. Going to take a look at comparision calculations as well.

V I know is the same or similar ball park. Not sure about the rest.
