Diluting B-Ionic

[gparr]

I bought a set of 5-gal buckets of B-Ionic this evening. The dilution label on the alkalinity bucket is for the 1-gal. size. I need to know how much water to use to dilute the alkalinity. Does anyone have a bucket with a dilution label on it?

Is this it?

"Our recommended starting dose is 1 ml. of each component per 4 gallons of aquarium capacity per day. Maintain alkalinity between 3.0 and 3.75 meq/liter (8.4 and 10.5 dKH) by testing daily and adjusting dose accordingly. Depending on the degree of calcification occurring in the aquarium, dose may have to be significantly increased over our recommended starting dose. Never add more than 1 ml. per gallon of each component in a 24 hour period, and never allow pH to rise above 8.45. Once the proper dose has been determined for your aquarium, testing can be performed less frequently. If your aquarium tends to run at a higher pH (over 8.45) we suggest you try our B-Ionic Calcium Bicarbonate System. When using kalkwasser in addition to B-Ionic Calcium Buffer System, follow the above procedure but start with 1 ml of each component per 8 gallons of aquarium capacity per day. For more detailed directions please refer to our product label."

If not I can check some more.

Thanks, Rich, and good to see you around here. What I need is how much water to pour into a new bucket to dilute the concentrate.
