I just bought Triton supplement package and I am looking to see what people who are using the Triton method have found as their steady/stable dose.
If you're using Triton, I'd like to know:
1) What dosage of the Triton supplements are you using?
2) Your total system volume
3) Your stocking...
I put together a spreadsheet to compare the expected cost of using the Triton method vs different % water changes. Here's a link, it's editable and downlaodable by anyone with the link. I don't claim to have any knowledge of the system or its costs aside from what I put into the calculator.
If...
Hi Randy,
I'm very curious as to how Triton might be able to achieve the Core7 dosing supplements high concentration while still maintaining a balanced 1:1 dosing profile. I can only imagine avoiding precipitation in the alkalinity component is quite a challenge at those concentration levels...
All - I got my Triton results back this morning and I just want to see what you folks think.
I'm battling a serious dinoflagellate invasion that won't seem to go away. I'm dosing up phosphates on a daily basis to around .2 ppm and it will drop to almost nothing within 24 hours. I notice my...
I have set up an IM Nuvo Mini 40 in my office (see below) and it has been running for about 8 weeks now. It will eventually be an SPS dominant tank so I have been looking at various methods of nutrient control/supplementation. I love the idea of the Triton method and have been looking at the...
I would love to get on board with this system but a few things are of concern.
My sump does have a refugium but it is not quite the recommended size. My system water volume is about 180 gallons and the sump I estimate to be around 10 gallons. It does house a nice ball of chaeto...
Currently I...
I have been running a Triton tank for about 2 years now. I made the switch to the Core7 product line about 6 months ago now and have noticed that dosing it has caused algae to form in my tank, seemingly Cyano.
In all fairness, I have not done an ICP test in about 6 months. The last test read...
Who should we contact about missing barcodes?
It usually takes a few days for a sample to be logged in California, but I have had one out now ~for a couple of weeks.
Thanks,

Hi all,
first let me introduce myself briefly. I am Sebastiaan from the Netherlands. I have had several fresh water tanks and several reef tanks for the past few years. (Had to change tanks due to changing home..).
My current tank is a customized Fluval M90, with a sump. It has been running...

Good afternoon all,
My SPS have been suffering from STN (all of them), so I performed a Triton Test and have received my results. A quick note; I've been battling GHA for the past few months, and I've almost won the battle (only a little left in the crevices of the rock). My STN started...
The wait is over. Now anyone can enjoy the balanced, 4 part additives from Triton. This set is all liquid and requires no diluting with RO/DI water. When dosing daily- maintaining stable alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, strontium, potassium, boron, iodine, iron, vanadium, etc all becomes much...

We will cover the new Triton Core 7 as well.
There was an excellent thread put together quite some time ago now by Billybeau1 and hilgert. I've referred to it may times to see if someone is close to the expected values of a particular saltmix. There can of course be slight variations and if any settling has occurred in the mix before use...
There are many different ions in seawater, and as reef aquarists we generally only test for a small number of these. Calcium, magnesium, “alkalinity”, nitrate, phosphate, and ammonia, for example, are relatively easy for hobbyists to test at home using kits. Other ions, however, are more...
