V - vanadium
since my icp test indicates i'm deficient on V, i'll try to perform the V concentration calcs, comparing the triton and ati products.

my 2nd triton report says...
i need a total of 2.89 mℓ of triton V supplement
to supply my entire tank (2411.31 ℓ) with a correction of +1.20 µg/ℓ
_____________________
so i am to correct 1.20 µg/ℓ x 2411.31 ℓ (total system volume) = by adding 2,893.572 µg of V
this is the amount contained in 2.89 mℓ of the triton reagent, so its concentration is 2,893.572 µg ÷ 2.89 mℓ = 1,001.236 µg/mℓ (rounded to 1,000 µg/mℓ)
therefore, triton V has a concentration of 1,000 µg/mℓ
______________________
regarding ati's V supplement, according to https://atiaquaristik.co.uk/shop/vanadium-100ml/, ati's product has a concentration of:
"1 ml of the supplement increases the V concentration of 100 litres to 2 µg/l"
as for the conversion, 1 mℓ contains: 100 ℓ x 2 µg/ℓ = 200 µg
therefore, ati V has a concentration of 200 µg/mℓ
__________________________
so i to correct my deficiency with ati V, i would need to add ×5 the required triton additive to achieve the same result (2.89 × 5 = 14.45 mℓ)
__________________________
the current value scorecard is:
triton V (US$29 for 100mℓ)
1,000 µg/ℓ
ati lithium (US$17 for 100mℓ)
200 µg/ℓ
even accounting for price, triton wins by more than double! (crapola, i already bought the ati, lol!)
