    Confusing results when figuring out "4 day dosage" of Foundational elements!

    Hello all! I have a 13.5 fluval evo, recently I've been trying to figure out the daily dosage for calcium, magnesium and Alk. Unfortunately right now when I measured my prams i got very confusing results and i need help! My salinity is at 35 ppt measured by a refractometer and held stable by...

    Hanna Checker and ICP Analysis showing massively different readings

    For the last several weeks, my Hanna checker has shown my tank to have roughly 500ppm calcium. I was alarmed by this because I don't dose calcium and have no idea where the extra calcium could come from. I decided to test my water mix (Instant Ocean at 1.024 specific gravity) with an ICP and...

    Salifert magnesium test

    Good morning, Another question to double check. I feel like I'm doing it wrong but idk. So I did the salifert magnesium test. After adding the powder it goes straight to blue. This would mean my Magnesium is at 1,500 right? Or am I doing something wrong. Thank you,

    Which Alk/Ca values should I believe?

    I have a New Years resolution to keep my tank chemistry as stable as possible to allow my corals to thrive. They are doing fine now with good growth and color and want to keep it that way. However, depending on the test kit I use I'm getting different results so not sure exactly what the 'now'...

    Test issues

    Anyone have their LFS tell them that their Alkalinity and Magnesium are low and should be dosed but your own test kits are telling you otherwise? Both LFS and myself are using Salifert test kits and testing the same water sample. Alkalinity: LFS 7.85 Me 8.3 Magnesium: LFS 1290 Me 1500+

    Aquaforest vs Salifert phosphate tests

    Hi everyone, I'm sure this has been answered numerous times but I can't find a comparison thread with these 2 specific tests. Hanna is out of my price range before you ask ;) I see that a lot of people get zero readings on their Salifert kits, hopefully that means their actual levels are close...

    Salifert testing higher dKh than Hanna

    So the other day I got some erroneous readings on my Salifert alkalinity test. First one was 9.6 dKh then two days later it was 12. I also tested a fresh batch of Reef Crystals and it came out 12 dKh. I panicked but everything looked healthy in my tank. Maybe I just screwed up the tests. I asked...
