The tank is still looking goood, I'll post some pics later this week when I have more time.
I had sent an ICP test out to be done last week and received the results back on Sunday. The test came back in less than 7 days which is really quite quick. Anyway, overall I am really happy with it. Some of the main points for me are:
Strontium (Sr) - I dosed enough to bring levels of Sr to about 9 at end of March. Levels are 6.6 beginning of May. So I probably lose about 1 mg/l a month. So I am going to dose weekly a little less than .25 mg/l
Molybdenum (Mo) Very high. Back in March, I dosed enough Mo to bring the levels to about 9. I then started using a Nitrate additive with Mo, this coincided with a terrible outbreak of Cyano. High Mo is thought by some to cause cyano so it is very interesting seeing these levels in my tank. Going back well over a year ago, I have always had very low levels of Mo (~2)and almost no cyano in the tank until very recently.
Zn and Mn and I. I have been doing at fairly high levels daily and they are not showing up at all. So now I feel a little more at ease with my dosing regimen.
Vanadium (V) I had dosed back in February and stopped because it looked like V was accumulating and not being used very quickly. It's slowely going down. Now that I know how much is being used monthly I should be able to dose it if needed.
PO4 is nice and low at 0.02
Here are the results of the test.
