Hi All,
I am battling starfish and hermit crab deaths. In additional to my ongoing temperature battles I have figured out that the most likely cause is KH being too low.
However, when I test with my "Tropic Marin" test kit, the result comes back as 4. When I test with the Sera kit, the number is 6.
Is it common to have this much discrepancy between different kits or brands? It's a mess up because now I don't trust any test results at all anymore and don't know what is true and what is not.
Anyone else dealt with similar problems?
