Average weight of fresh water is 8lbs. per gallon. Marine water will be heavier because of the salt, so let's say 9 lbs.
100 gallons water only X 9 = 900 lbs.
900 x .1%- .5% = .9lbs - 4.5 lbs.
1 kilo = 2.2 lbs. So 4.5lbs divided by 2.2 = 2.04545 kilos of sulfur beads?
Is this correct?

Fugu> i didn't notice your post above...
guys, fugu's explanation is clearer...
magulo yung sa akin... 
here's the link where i read na 1% of total water volume ang kailangan.
(kanina ko pa iniisip kung saan ko nabasa yun eh..)

ganito gawin mo, ilagay mo muna yung sulfur beads sa isang fine mesh na bag - katulad nung mga nilalagyan ng activated charcoal. then dun sa isang chamber crushed corals.
drip mo yung tank water mo sa chamber ng sulfur beads at 1 drop per second, yung outlet ng denitrator mo hwag mo muna itapat sa tank mo, kuha ka ng malinis na baso or kahit anong container to catch the droplets na lalabas sa outlet. siguro after 24 hours may lalabas na sa outlet mo, check mo yun for nitrates, dapat O nitrate yun. then check mo rin pH, medyo acidic yan. there are a lot of ways para masolusyunan yun. ask jolt

chonglai> pangit kasi pagkaexplain ko eh...
OT:
di ako upgrade, dagdag, sabi kasi ng parents ko at mga kapatid ko ang damot ko daw. nasa room ko kasi yung tank ko. tapos minsan pag aalis ako nilalock ko pa... hehehe... kaya ayun, sabi ko setup ako para sa family ng isang malaking tank (hati-hati sa gastos), pumayag naman sila pero nung narinig nila yung gastos medyo nagkamot... 
balik sa topic (medyo):
kung nabasa mo yung link sa article sa taas, plenum nya nilagyan nya ng sulfur beads sa ilalim tapos saka sya naglagay ng DSB, yun ang gusto kong gawin...
