Aquarium Calculator

Hi All

Can anybody tell me what has happened to the Aquarium Calculator, when you click on the link at the top of the page it just takes you back to the home page of the forum.
Any ideas
Thanks

Well I have just clicked on your link and it just takes me to the forum index.
I have not got a clue what is going on.
Is anybody else getting this, or is it just me?
Thanks

Can you try just typing the address into your browser?

What browser are you using?

Yeah it takes me to the forum main page too. I'm on firefox

http/www.fishforums.net/aquarium-calculator.htm --even that takes me back to the forum ha.

FF2 or FF3? I know FF3 has some problems with another forum I am a member on

Ditto. Looks like a problem.

Bizarre, works fine here... I guess we'll have to wait for someone else to comment - lol


Incidently in the mean time what did you want to know? I can run the calc and post the result here for you

I have also tried running it on IE7 and it will not load.

Schmill,

if you could run the calculator for me that would be great, I have a 60l tank and I need to know how much ammonia to add to it for first cycle purposes.
Thanks

Fishless Cycling - Ammonia Required
Volume: 60 Litres
Desired Level: 5ppm
% of ammonia in solution: 9.5 (I've assumed this as it's the 'norm', if it doesn't match your bottle let me know and I'll re-calc)

Solution Required: 3.16 ml

Hope that helps you out

Hi Scouseman,

Its easy to work out without the calculator.

Your tank is 60 litres = 60,000ml

You want to add ammonia to 5ppm (parts per million), so:

60,000ml / 1,000,000 x 5 = 0.3ml of pure ammonia is required

Most ammonia solutions are 9.5% concentration, so i'll go on that basis for now, but obviously you should check, so:

0.3ml / 9.5 x 100 =

3ml of 9.5% solution is required to raise 60l of water to 5ppm.

Cheers

BTT

I clicked on the link at the top of the page and it went to the home page but with this link

http/www.fishforums.net/aquarium-calculator.htm

so you are not alone
I'm also pulling my hair out at how slow the forum is running at. 2-3minutes to load a page up, oh my god, it's monotonous

Schmill,

Thanks for running the calculation for me, it is much appreciated.

Backtotropical,

Thanks for showing me the formula for working the ammonia level out myself.

Cheers
