minor and trace elements incorporated into these formulations are those which are specifically demonstrated by oceanographic researchers to exhibit nutrient-type depth profiles, and which are not considered phytotoxic at NSW values; this list conforms with our minor and trace element solution, Isol8 MT, which is intended to be dosed into recirculating seawater systems as a means of maintaining NSW values, at the daily rate of 1 mL \/ 250 gallons, or 1 drop (0.05 mL) per 12.5 gallons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLanthanide metals (Lanthanum, Cerium, Praseodymium, Neodymium, Promethium, Samarium, Europium, Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, Thulium, Ytterbium, and Lutetium) are not incorporated into these formulations; this decision has been made as a result of the considerable body of evidence which shows that these elements, collectively, are phytotoxic in concentrations which are at or below those of their respective NSW values (assuming S=35.0).  Additionally, barium and chromium salts are excluded on grounds of contact toxicity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll variants of the Formul8 series incorporate sodium chloride, not the case with our Formul8x series which requires that the user add their own, locally-sourced (hopefully) sodium chloride in order to create a complete seawater analog.  For those interested, we use FCC-grade Morton Purex, not TFC Purex (which contains an anti-caking agent, Yellow Prussiate of Soda, aka Sodium ferrocyanide), in the Formul8 series.  Average purity of FCC-grade Morton Purex exceeds 99.75%.  For reference, sodium chloride purity must be above 99.0% in order to qualify as USP-grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe offer the service of producing customized engineered salt blends for those interested.  Clientele may dictate that the formulation follows seawater composition as recorded by a specific researcher, collaborative team, or lab.  There are many such analyses published.  Published values generally reflect open ocean ionic composition (Arctic, Atlantic, Indian, Pacific, Southern Ocean, and marginal seas with ionic composition similar to open ocean values, herein collectively referred to as \"average seawater\").  Because the values for all ions tend to vary less than 2% (S=35) in these reports (even dating back to the 1960's), we do not feel that there is much practical difference in outcome of using one report vs another as a basis for an engineered seawater salt.  Be that as it may, we do not recommend any one single report to follow as a basis for reproducing average seawater chemistry.  Interested parties are directed to any appropriate peer-reviewed literature published within the last five years which includes a comprehensive analysis of seawater using modern analytical methods, bearing in mind that the individual values published are sometimes a compilation of ion-specific analyses performed by individuals and labs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the client's objective is to have a formulation created which features an elevated or reduced concentration of one or more ions relative to their average seawater values, then the procedure is simply to provide us with the target values for those ions.  We are able to formulate and produce a blended salt which conforms to practically any requirements, with variance of ≤0.01%, assuming one degree of freedom (chloride in most cases, though sulfate can sometimes be used).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimilarly, it is possible to formulate and produce an

minor and trace elements incorporated into these formulations are those which are specifically demonstrated by oceanographic researchers to exhibit nutrient-type depth profiles, and which are not considered phytotoxic at NSW values; this list conforms with our minor and trace element solution, Isol8 MT, which is intended to be dosed into recirculating seawater systems as a means of maintaining NSW values, at the daily rate of 1 mL \/ 250 gallons, or 1 drop (0.05 mL) per 12.5 gallons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLanthanide metals (Lanthanum, Cerium, Praseodymium, Neodymium, Promethium, Samarium, Europium, Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, Thulium, Ytterbium, and Lutetium) are not incorporated into these formulations; this decision has been made as a result of the considerable body of evidence which shows that these elements, collectively, are phytotoxic in concentrations which are at or below those of their respective NSW values (assuming S=35.0).  Additionally, barium and chromium salts are excluded on grounds of contact toxicity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll variants of the Formul8 series incorporate sodium chloride, not the case with our Formul8x series which requires that the user add their own, locally-sourced (hopefully) sodium chloride in order to create a complete seawater analog.  For those interested, we use FCC-grade Morton Purex, not TFC Purex (which contains an anti-caking agent, Yellow Prussiate of Soda, aka Sodium ferrocyanide), in the Formul8 series.  Average purity of FCC-grade Morton Purex exceeds 99.75%.  For reference, sodium chloride purity must be above 99.0% in order to qualify as USP-grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe offer the service of producing customized engineered salt blends for those interested.  Clientele may dictate that the formulation follows seawater composition as recorded by a specific researcher, collaborative team, or lab.  There are many such analyses published.  Published values generally reflect open ocean ionic composition (Arctic, Atlantic, Indian, Pacific, Southern Ocean, and marginal seas with ionic composition similar to open ocean values, herein collectively referred to as \"average seawater\").  Because the values for all ions tend to vary less than 2% (S=35) in these reports (even dating back to the 1960's), we do not feel that there is much practical difference in outcome of using one report vs another as a basis for an engineered seawater salt.  Be that as it may, we do not recommend any one single report to follow as a basis for reproducing average seawater chemistry.  Interested parties are directed to any appropriate peer-reviewed literature published within the last five years which includes a comprehensive analysis of seawater using modern analytical methods, bearing in mind that the individual values published are sometimes a compilation of ion-specific analyses performed by individuals and labs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the client's objective is to have a formulation created which features an elevated or reduced concentration of one or more ions relative to their average seawater values, then the procedure is simply to provide us with the target values for those ions.  We are able to formulate and produce a blended salt which conforms to practically any requirements, with variance of ≤0.01%, assuming one degree of freedom (chloride in most cases, though sulfate can sometimes be used).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimilarly, it is possible to formulate and produce an engineered seawater salt which accurately recreates the chemical composition of marginal seas with ionic values which do not conform to average seawater.  Examples are the Mediterranean Sea and Black

minor and trace elements incorporated into these formulations are those which are specifically demonstrated by oceanographic researchers to exhibit nutrient-type depth profiles, and which are not considered phytotoxic at NSW values; this list conforms with our minor and trace element solution, Isol8 MT, which is intended to be dosed into recirculating seawater systems as a means of maintaining NSW values, at the daily rate of 1 mL \/ 250 gallons, or 1 drop (0.05 mL) per 12.5 gallons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLanthanide metals (Lanthanum, Cerium, Praseodymium, Neodymium, Promethium, Samarium, Europium, Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, Thulium, Ytterbium, and Lutetium) are not incorporated into these formulations; this decision has been made as a result of the considerable body of evidence which shows that these elements, collectively, are phytotoxic in concentrations which are at or below those of their respective NSW values (assuming S=35.0).  Additionally, barium and chromium salts are excluded on grounds of contact toxicity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll variants of the Formul8 series incorporate sodium chloride, not the case with our Formul8x series which requires that the user add their own, locally-sourced (hopefully) sodium chloride in order to create a complete seawater analog.  For those interested, we use FCC-grade Morton Purex, not TFC Purex (which contains an anti-caking agent, Yellow Prussiate of Soda, aka Sodium ferrocyanide), in the Formul8 series.  Average purity of FCC-grade Morton Purex exceeds 99.75%.  For reference, sodium chloride purity must be above 99.0% in order to qualify as USP-grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe offer the service of producing customized engineered salt blends for those interested.  Clientele may dictate that the formulation follows seawater composition as recorded by a specific researcher, collaborative team, or lab.  There are many such analyses published.  Published values generally reflect open ocean ionic composition (Arctic, Atlantic, Indian, Pacific, Southern Ocean, and marginal seas with ionic composition similar to open ocean values, herein collectively referred to as \"average seawater\").  Because the values for all ions tend to vary less than 2% (S=35) in these reports (even dating back to the 1960's), we do not feel that there is much practical difference in outcome of using one report vs another as a basis for an engineered seawater salt.  Be that as it may, we do not recommend any one single report to follow as a basis for reproducing average seawater chemistry.  Interested parties are directed to any appropriate peer-reviewed literature published within the last five years which includes a comprehensive analysis of seawater using modern analytical methods, bearing in mind that the individual values published are sometimes a compilation of ion-specific analyses performed by individuals and labs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the client's objective is to have a formulation created which features an elevated or reduced concentration of one or more ions relative to their average seawater values, then the procedure is simply to provide us with the target values for those ions.  We are able to formulate and produce a blended salt which conforms to practically any requirements, with variance of ≤0.01%, assuming one degree of freedom (chloride in most cases, though sulfate can sometimes be used).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimilarly, it is possible to formulate and produce an engineered seawater salt which accurately recreates the chemical composition of marginal seas with ionic values which do not conform to average seawater.  Examples are the Mediterranean Sea and Black Sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Captiv8 Aquaculture","offers":[{"title":"Default

A squirt of cold or strongly acidic or basic water will have similar results, and does not reliably indicate acceptance or recognition of the substance as a food.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Captiv8 Aquaculture","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795890471208,"sku":"C8IVR75","price":38.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/6293\/4824\/files\/c8r_3d_integr8_reef_sup_4.jpg?v=1790884475"},{"product_id":"captiv8-reef-blueprint-isol8-cr-60ml-chromium","title":"Captiv8 Aquaculture Reef Blueprint Isol8 Cr 60ml - Chromium","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eParameter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChromium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eValue\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1,000 mg\/L\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCharacteristics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eActive Components: Rubidium bromide, anhydrous, USP.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBasic Application\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 drop (0.05 mL) per 0.552 gallons (2.089 L), or 1 mL per 11.040 gallons (41.786 L), provides NSW [Rb].\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 mL per 26.4 gallons (100 L) increases [Rb] by 0.05 ppm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReference Standard [Se]:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.1197 ppm (S=35.0)​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.1362 ppm (S=40.0)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn established systems, increase [Rb] up to 5% of existing ionic value daily, until desired value or reference standard is reached.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection tabindex=\"-1\" aria-label=\"main content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eApplication\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApplication of Isol8 Rb provides rubidium, taken up in a similar fashion to potassium, and potentially incorporated into biopigments appearing deep-red to purple, the degree to which this occurs being at least partly related to the predominant accessible form of dissolved inorganic nitrogen.  Anecdotal accounts of shifts in coloration of corallimorpharians with consistent Rb supplementation may be a result of this process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRb must not be overdosed.  A reliable ICP analysis (performed by a service provider who has the ability to accurately determine [Rb+]) must be performed prior to commencement of Rb supplementation, to ensure that dosing is consistent with existing system [Rb+].  Thereafter, ICP analysis performed on at least a monthly frequency will provide rate of system Rb uptake, enabling modification of Rb dosing as necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote that the use of zeolite intended to curtail ammonium content in recirculating marine ecosystems will also remove potassium and rubidium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecommended is diluting an appropriate volume of this solution into a larger volume of purified water (with a purity of at least 98%), and applying this diluted solution to the system with an automated dosing system.
