Ummm no but never know

ICP results. Explains why all my monti caps peeled to nothing. But acros are still doing well.

Weird

 

[Nate Chalk]

Phosphorus dunno if that matters. Need to understand that .


Calcium was a big oof. Test regimen is off. Clearly thought I was at 500

 

[Goaway]

Acros have a lock on the calcium, they aren't sharing with the montis

Phosphorus is good. Slightly higher than some people like but typical for a lot of people with SPS.

Phosphorus is more than just phosphate. Phosphates measure one form of phosphorus but phosphorus is total phosphorus including phosphates.

Or something like that.

No, phosphate is not the same as phosphorus; phosphate is a molecule containing phosphorus, oxygen, and often other elements, while phosphorus is the chemical element itself.

This skim gets super nerdy.

I'm do e reading about it!

I think she basically found the same thing I said. Phosphorus tests do include phosphates (and other forms of phosphorus) but phosphate tests only include phosphorus as phosphates. Total phosphorus is all forms.

It means phosphate only tells part of the phosphorus story?

Kinda like Nitrates, Nitrites, and Ammonia are TKN (total Nitrogen basically with another Latin word in the middle).
