Does anyone know a mix that I can make up using chelated iron at 13% to approximate Seachems Iron product?

Hi Jim,
I am no Guru but…
Scott’s “approximation” is approximately [SUP]1[/SUP]⁄[SUB]3 [/SUB] Seachem’s solution strength.The Seachem Iron is a 1% solution, or 10,000-ppm.
To approximate Seachem with 13% chelated iron, mix approximately 38.5-grams (approximating 8 ¾ teaspoon) 13% Fe[SUP]2+[/SUP] into approximately 450-ml of distilled water, then add enough distilled water (approximately 12.5-ml) to make approximately 500-ml .

If you want it, the calculator does do 13% (EDTA) and 12.5% (Gluconnate) Fe.
Rawr!
You don't have any amounts showing what percentage of Fe is used for EDTA Fe and Fe Gluconate in the calculator. It just lists the names of these two compounds. Must be an overlooked typo.Wet;74133 said:LoudCreature!
