NP pro dilution

[Barry Bowen]

Hi
Been using NP pro 2000ml via dosing pump.
Can't seem to get any of the 2000ml container so if I purchase the 50ml droplet bottle, what's the correct dilution amount?
I've read 50ml to 2 liter's of RO and also read 50ml to 2.5 liter's of RO
Any idea which is correct??

Barry, the only difference would be concentration, if you mix the first recipe, it will be stronger than the later. But, you would need to know in ml what each drop constitutes to be totally accurate. That said, I see no harm either recipe myself. You can just up or lower based on test results

Thank you Perry
I am dosing 5ml per day with the 2000ml bottle and my tank has a total volume of just under 150 liter's so I think the 50ml to 2 liter's of RO should be fine, would you agree?

Yes, like I said, pay attention to nutrient levels and observe your tank and corals. I see no problem

Hi Perry
I've been using comp 1,2,3+ for a bit now and just curious about
comp 1+
In my dosing container, it seems to have a rusty colour film settled on the base of the container.

Is this normal for
comp 1+ ?
Do I need to mix it every now and then or daily ?
Or leave as is and clean out to refill ?

AF says this is the iron addition in the micro elements that is settling at the bottom, and is completely normal. You can shake the jug several times, but likely it will just rest on the bottom once it settles. I give mine an occasional shake, whenever I think of it

Ok
Thank you Perry
