First time testing phosphate

[phlibbyreefer]

Got my Hannah ulr phosphate checker in today and tested and got 0.18. 140 gallon total volume system. I tested right after feeding if that makes a difference. Currently dosing 10ml daily of nopox. Should i increase dosage? How is my phosphate level?

A bit high. Depending on livestock and algae
IMO , keep the dose the same , the. Test next week and trhe week after.then maybe adjust the dose.

Fwiw , many run higher nutrients for some corals.

Thanks. That sounds like good advice.

hello PH the reading isn't bad at all. Salty gives great advice . Also you will get used to using the kit .
If not, order some more of the reagent packets . You will go thru the few They gave You with the kit quickly

I started testing mine every 4 days until I dialed it in

I already have an extra 100 tests worth of reagent.
