I agree with this.Regardless, it sounds like using the HI713 will at least put me in the ballpark and prevent me from going much too high.

Wanted to show off using this in my tank.
My system runs essentially zero Iodine when I don't add it.
I measured baseline tank water, and then added Red sea Trace A (Iodine) that should raise Iodine to 0.060ppm Measured again 30 min later and again 4hr later.
This was using the recommended checker, the hi707.
Hours 60s 180s FCD temp calc ppm 0.0 384 381 0.0078 68.2 0.002 0.8 334 264 0.2096 68.4 0.066 4.3 340 281 0.1735 68.4 0.055
...but you can use one of the hanna checkers at 525nm green LED, like the PO4 checkers and you get almost the same thing. Because it works by measureing the fraction of color removed, so the actual values of the readings don't matter.
So here's same water samples tested with a different checker with a green LED.
60s 180s FCD temp calc ppm 117 90 0.2307 68.5 0.073 125 103 0.1760 68.5 0.056
So here's what it looks lijke comparing the two. Almost the same regardless of which checker and whether the LED is blue or Green.
@Rick Mathew @Dan_P @taricha you guys are awesome I want to thank you for putting this work in.I obtainec good results using the LR Phosphate Checker.
This is the correct reagent kit. Very observant about the Hanna containers! I used some old Alk reagent bottles to put the Red Sea reagents in. It makes them much more accessible than the dropper containers for using the pipette.@Rick Mathew one thing I noticed in your video is your A & B reagents had a hanna sticker on them are you using something different?
Just making sure this is the right reagents...
