Iodine is present in NSW (Natural seawater) in a very low concentration (0.06 mg/L or 0.06 ppm).Iodine occurs as different species. Some of them are iodide, […]
Magnesium is present in NSW in a fairly high concentration (1300 – 1400 mg/L). Magnesium is an essential part of chlorophyll, which is necessary for photosynthesis. […]
When an aquarium has insufficient regions deprived of oxygen (= anaerobic zones) or denitrification proceeds incompletely then nitrate will build-up.A too high nitrate concentration can result […]
Silicate occurs especially in tap water or in purified water when the RO or DI unit is not functioning properly. Silicate not only results in diatom […]
