i don´t know if my calculations are correct. Tried the reef moonshiners calculator, but may i am easy distracted, it was too much informations for me at once.
My Question is.

I got my ICPs back and know how much Fluoride i need per day ( 0,014mg/L)

And i want to mix a ready to use Solution with a dispenser wich releases 2ml per push, i have a 100L tank.
I want to dose daily, so 2ml per day with 0,014mg/l, for 100L. i need 0,14mg Fluoride in the 2ml
The Mixing bootle contains 1000ml

So i multiply the 0,14mg with 500, so 70gr of Fluoride and 930ml of RoDi Water

So with one push (2ml) i will raise the fluoride by 0,014mg in a 100L Tank?

Is that correct or am i missing something. If it is too easy it is kinda suspicios to me :D
 
Be careful with fluoride, IMO. It is toxic.

Backing up, you want to make a DIY dosing solution? From what solid material?
Sorry for the late reply.

I am aware that it is toxic, i will prepare myself properly for handling that stuff.

I want to make a all in one solution for my own tank with fluoride, iron, iodine and manganese. Mix everything in 1 Bottle.
For the dosing, with the 1 push (2ml) would be nice, but if it is more diluted it is also ok, just wanted to take the easiest way.
For mixing i would use the powdered chemicals as stated here in the forum

Except for the iron, i can only get

Don't know if it is useable or not, maybe you can help me with that.

I tracked my ICPs and saw my consumption of those elements and calculated my daily needs of those elements.
I am regularly doing ICP, but i am tired of dosing those stuff with the ATI boosters daily, specialy manganese ist still a such a small dosis for the daily need on a 330gal.
