Having a stupid moment trying to understand how to read the syringe I used this much titrationsso how do I relay this to these numbers on the card?
Well that’s what’s left in the 1ml syringe so I assume you have to read the marks in reverses to calculate tritant used??? So almost using the entire syringe wouldn’t my mag be high?
I’m my understanding I’ve used over 0.7ml of the 1 ml syringe so how do I relate that to the card or am I completely reading the syringe wrong?;Hilarious
If I'm not mistaken, you measure how much titrant you used, and compare that number to the card? Otherwise I've been doing it wrong
I use the Salifert nitrate test... coming from Fluval and API. Its unreal how much easier that test is. Is the mag test similar?No, your right. It's measured by how much you use. Not what's left. Salifert is so much easier for me.
Gotcha thanksIt's a common error with Red Sea kits......the syringe, when full is 1 ml. When you are done with the titration, the amount you put into the vial IS NOT THE READING ON THE SYRINGE. You need to take that reading on the syringe and subtract it from 1. So if the syringe says 0.23, the amount you used is 1 - 0.23 = 0.78 mls......which equals 1560.
