Hey reefers,

Do any (or planned) automated aquarium testers test phosphate? The ION director might, but if it doesn’t are there any other options other than the reefbot?

Thank you!
 
Rumor mill has it the new one coralvue is releasing at Macna I think will have a ion probe similar to a icp test and do Alk in titration, and the rest with separate icp probes, Ca, Nitrate, Phosphate, Mg, potassium, salinity, and I can’t remember what else. It will also have built in dosers to make any correction needed for Alk, Ca, mg. I just watched a video on it and if I can find it I’ll copy the link
 
I remember seeing this and couldn’t find it. Thanks!!

I guess we will find out if PO4 is a possibility this weekend at MACNA
 
The ion not do it, they are other alternative since?
