water test

Is the Aqua Medic water testing company still in business? I found information on Bulk Reef Supply about them and their test is what I’m looking for but I can’t seem to find anywhere to actually purchase it from. Is this still a company? If so, does anybody have a link to where I could purchase...

Been using a Hanna pH checker for over a year and have regularly been getting readings of 8.6+ (8.6 flashing on screen). If I put 20-30 mL (have a 20g nano) of some white vinegar in the tank, usually will bring the reading down to 8.3 or 8.2. However, recently got the Apex A3 Pro and have had...

Hey everyone! A bit of a newbie question here from someone that’s been in the hobby a long time. I’ve always just done consistent water changes, kept watch, month long cycle period, and have always had decent luck. I just set up a Fluval Evo 13.5 and want to make it a heavily concentrated reef...

Good day everyone , I just received few days ago the IonDirector ( one week ago ) on my both aquariums and KH Director ( three weeks ago ) . - KH DIRECTOR : initial setup is really easy with GHL videos , all went smooth and I double checked with Hanna KH checker that I trust alot but...

Hello all! I currently have a 60 gallon reed tank that has been having some problems. I run 2 AI prime lights in my tank and seem to notice a couple things. My acans have not seemed to do very well where the light hits em, however they are encrusted to the actual rock. Also, many of my corals...

I am still new to having a reef tank since I started in December 2020 every week i have taken my water to my local fish store to be tested and they would just tell me yes its good or that I need to fix what ever needed fixing but never told me what the test results were i just started to test my...

I want to get some Hanna Chekers as I have heard they are quite good, any suggestions on the best ones & other tests that will be better for other tests. Currently using API like a noobie and I absolutely hate it because I can never figure out which color is which.

I just wanted a critic or some suggestions to get my water a little better. The LFS where it was tested said everything was good. So im looking for thoughts and advice. I posted a picture of the results.

I would like to upgrade from the API tests I have now to something a little more accurate and trustworthy among fellow hobbyists. Currently I'm looking at this Salifert kit. Is there another site out there that has it priced cheaper? I know I need pH, Ammonia/Ammonium, Nitrate, Calcium...

Hey there, I want to present you my DIY gadget that I made out of boredom. It is a magnetic stirrer that is simple to use, simple to make and looks clean. It really made water testing less tedious and I always use it since I got it. Please note that I am not an electrician - and there are...

I finally got curious enough to try out the Triton testing out and thought Id post my results here and see what you all think. First some background info. My system is about 300 gallons total and is made up of 3 tanks plus a sump. I have a mixed selection of coral and a not so heavy fishload...

Let's be honest, we are not doing full time on this hobby so time is of the essence and each of us has our own preferred parameters which we believe need to be checked quite regularly. As a hobbyists and enthusiasts, what do you test on regular basis? What do you emphasize on? Say I test Boron...

I was starting a tank with IO salt and Live rock etc. But I was wondering how often do you check your water quality? and methods of dealing with water quality DURING the cycle. (I have a skimmer running).

So this is my first time testing water from this tank that I've had running at my house for approximately 4 days. The person I bought it from had it running for ~1 month or so. Unfortunately my Nitrate is really high, but the pH, Ammonia and Nitrite look O.K. to me. Was wondering what you guys...
