What you have sounds fine to me (no expertise at all...) but for future

http://www.kentmarine.com/products/kent-lugols-iodide.htm The bottle states it

has 11.385% iodide and the ingredients state it contains de-ionized water,

potassium iodide, and iodine but it does not give a % or ratio. I thought I

would check in to be certain as to what this is.

I have encountered some difficulty sourcing

Lugol's solution here in Toronto, Canada and found this at a aquarium store. I

am not certain if this is an acceptable form of Lugol's. http://www.kentmarine.com/products/kent-lugols-iodide.htm

The bottle states it has 11.385% iodide and the ingredients state it contains

de-ionized water, potassium iodide, and iodine but it does not give a % or

ratio. I thought I would check in to be certain as to what this is.

How do I calculate the percentage of the solution? 2% 4% 5% there must be a

formula...I've started looking in obscure places to find stock of essentials

should distressing times arise...I should probably get some fish Is this for

your corals sir? Ummmm...yeah!
