TLF Reborn high molybdenum?

[n4s]

I’m trying to find the source of my high molybdenum. I noticed the increase about the time I added TLF reborn. The newer smaller media. I previously had the older stuff and didn’t have high Mo.

Does anyone else that use TLF reborn (newer smaller media) notice elevated molybdenum?

This is my level increase.
4/6- 45
7/21-42
10/6-56
11/4-69
12/6-99
1/6/22-123

I haven't followed it as close as you but I always had high Moly when using reborn (testing through AWT.com). When they changed to the crushed stuff versus the nice chunky media I changed to ARM and haven't been out of range since. It does have a lower melting point though 6.1-6.3 works best.

My Mo levels have been rising every month since adding a new batch of reborn to the reactor. It could be due to other reasons, but the above two observations make me think the recent reborn may be the cause.

Likely of everything else stayed the same.

If I understand correctly, I agree. There were and are so many other variables, no way I can be sure what the cause is. Although, I'm not going to worry since the levels mentioned here are not known to be toxic according to this thread: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/molybdenum.513045/#post-5439338
