The Triton Method?

Hey guys,

I think you possibly missunderstand the TRITON method.

1. it´s not about to get people in need for TRITON products, like some here are thinking about it.
As we give you the amounts of , for example Iodine, and don´t tell you that TRITON element 45 is missing.
You are able to use any product but a lot more concious/aware of what you add.
for example you can dose Randy´s diy Iron-Citrate or Potassium iodid.... but you have more controle over the dosing.( as you can test for them).
You can still do Waterchanges but you can test the water before you change to see if it´s better then the water in your tank.

The Triton Methode is more the result of an sientific aproach to reefkeeping.
As a professional and very transparent company we can not hide, from the responsibility, to help our costumers after a detailed test like the ICP-OES.
We can not and will not start to blame other companys because of bad salts, additives ,... we decided to create a methode superior enough to keep up with a ICP-OES test, and make your next test look better, and reach your goels easy and without to much effort from your side.
Relying on the effort and abilities of our company. ( for sure we make this controlable for you by the testing service ).

So what i want to say in my bad english is you can use what ever you want and do any method while using the ICP test, and if your tank is fine and the test is good, go on.
But if you see your results in the tank can be improved and the test also is showing improvment possibilities, then start improving:
Eliminate errors, find contamination sources...

At the end you will have your own method, also able to create a tank that in a ICP-TEST will show up a lot of greens, or you do the TRITON method and have one from the beginning.

:smile:

the conclusion is we created the TRITON method with a lot of knowledge and experiance because of the laboratory and all the informations and reaserch we have done over the years.
And you as the costumers are also able to get this knowledge do testings and create a as advanced methode, because we deliver you this knowledge as a service.

So you just need to decide wich way you want to go in your hobby

All the best Ehsan
 
Also i don´t know what you mean with magic botles ?
We don´t even have fancy corals on the botles, you can buy V = vanadium, Mn = Manganese....
We also don´t tell you about biopolimers or magic ingridients....
And you can test for the things we sell, with a service brought to you by us.
I don´t thonk this is Magical at all ?

All the best Ehsan
 
Maybe, but ICP machines are extremely expensive (mine cost $80,000, but that was about 10 years ago and they may be less expensive now). In any case, competitors charge far, far more than Triton for ICP based measurements (see ENC Labs - Chemical Analysis and Consulting for a comparison), so it will only be a home run if they can succeed long term. :)

Yes Randy they are still expensive:sad:, and we are already 7 years on the market over here in Europe, and I worked a long time to get a accurate and high troughput methode for ICP testing wich is not at all easy for seawatermatrix... ( I lost some years of my life I am sure).
But finaly it´s nice that it helps so many people in the hobby geting more succsessful with there Tanks.
And still we are improving.

All the best Ehsan
 
Here some other Tanks that run TRITON method:

And here some of Dr.Dom N ( London )
He is a good friend and as a Dr he realy like to experiment a lot, so i think in the moment he is running 1/2 Careactor 1/2 Triton elementz and refugium + filter TRITON style but with Amonia dosing..... only him and good knows exactly:bigsmile:

But he is happy with the results and his tests are looking good.

Ehsan, I hope you can understand that some of us who have been in the hobby for a while will approach a new system or product with skepticism because this hobby is full of magic potions...

There was much hype and promise behind a certain new product called Acro*****. One only needs to go through a long thread on this forum to realise much of the hype and promise doesnt really amount to much...

So when a new system appears, some of us will be wary of it; especially when it "appears" one needs to follow and buy products from that system...of course in the post above, you have explained that Dom uses 1/2 Ca reactor and 1/2 Triton Elements.

The tanks you posted above are VERY beautiful reef tanks without a doubt. However, Dom, yourself and Robert are obviously very skilled reefkeepers so your results are not surprising to me.

Business is good for everybody; but for this hobby especially, I much prefer supporting a system/brand/product that not only improves the health and conditions of these beautiful but delicate creatures we are keeping; but also furthers the hobby in a positive way; improving our understanding of delicate corals such as SPS corals...and my wish is that any new system or product isnt simply a business model to make money for a few individuals, but that we can learn new things and increase our understanding.

It is a very good thing that you offer the water parameter tests at a relatively good price. A few of my friends who do not use the Triton system have used the tests to learn about their water parameters.

Since you are carrying out 1000's of tests, is there any possibility that results can show a trend for sorts of parameters make for colourful SPS corals?

For years we have seen it repeated all over; get your Nitrates under 5ppm and Phosphates around 0.03ppm...but that doesn't necessarily result in everyone having colourful SPS corals in their tanks...perhaps the testing data can show something?

Anyway, many thanks for posting the beautiful reef tank photos.
 
Hey Sahin,
I not only posted some Pics i also answered about why Triton is not a magic possion, the hype is not coming from the marketing point, more it is because our products are "real" we don´t claim we have the best magic possion.
So what we do is giving the costumers knowledg about what the do to there tanks, and let them descide what to use and what not.
We don´t base our products on trust, so you don´t need to trust us... we base them on knowledge (your knowledge) and your descision.
This is the first time a company aprouch reefkeeping like that, and if you understand the system and the background, the hype is quite normal i think.

All the best Ehsan.
 
Hi Ehsan is nice to see you here.
A couple of questions, I just got your base Elementz from a trip I did to Germany they where delivered to the hotel and also the test ICP, but where can I find the other products in USA and also if you can provide me a list of the retailers in Europe.
It seems very difficult to get your products from a retail shop
I always travel because I'm a pilot so if you can give some details it will be nice.
Thank you in Advance
Hasso
PS: Looking forward to start my Triton Method
