What's everyone's fav phosphate test kit? And what's the ideal phosphate number for acros? @TSA Corals what do you guys keep your acros at?

These are our parameters 75-80° F; sg 1.025-1.026; pH 8.1-8.4, Ca 420-440 ppm, Alk 8-9.5 dKH, Mg 1300-1450, Nitrates 10 -15 ppm, Phosphates < .10ppm.

I let my phosphate rise to .09 and tell you what, the growth rate and PE was so much better, I am tempted to keep it there haha

Do you find the hanna worth it? I had the hanna before and hated it. It was so inconsistent.
i have redsea as my back up and I have never had an off reading from hannah, even if I test back to back they are within spec, if you don't clean your cuvettes properly and us RODI to wash everything with even your syringe, you will get bad readings
