This iodine ok to use?

BlitzPuppet · Mar 21, 2006

I have an acrylic resevoir, and this is the only kind they had at my Wal-mart.

Swan Iodine:Active ingredient Iodione Tincture U.S.P. 100% (2% Iodine). And that's all it says.

It does not say "alcohol free" or anything like that, what do you guys think?

use distilled water from the grocery store and some antifreeze.

at least it didn't cost too much. check out this thread: http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=449827

do you have any walgreens near you?

ya, right down the road so I guess I can check them out later tonight. What antifreeze are you going to use? I don't have any Zerex by me so I have to find something else.

I'm going to go with http://www.hyperlube.com/prod_cool.asp, it was recommended by a viperjohn. They don't seem to carry it anywhere near me, even at the retailers that are supposed to carry it so I paid the viperjohn to mail me a bottle.

You still need some growth inhibitor like iodine. Antifreeze will NOT stop anything from growing in your system.
