Totally feel you! It’s like a juggling act with alk, calc, and mag all needing to be in sync. At least running tests with the SpinTouch makes it easier to catch the swings early before adding any livestock.
Why is alk so high? Fwiw the margin of error on the API spindisk is like 30%.
Oh it’s in ppm
Yep. Ops. Whats that, about 9.5- 10?
I think 7dkh of the top of my head
6.9. Wow. Went from thinking its to high to to low. The edges of in range. Good thing your tank didn't swing like I just did lol.
lol definitely need improvement🤣
Where did you purchase this meter? Is it one sample all in one? I’m way behind I’m still dropping drops
It’s just a spin touch from my LFS there really good from what I’ve found there located in the Brisbane area. Reeftopia if your wondering, they do sometimes charge for tests but I’ve tested there heaps and only got charged once so I could really tell you. Super reliable though.
I just looked up the cost…$1200-1500. Ouch.
I just did the same. Just getting started in reefing. The wife is already mad about cost of lights and other things so that will have to wait. Lol.
Tank still cycling? Under 6 months?
Just scrapping 6 weeks my cycle screwed itself cause of some bad advice I got about ghost 👻 feeding
