So I am frustrated with the test kits I have been using a Salifert for my cycling
Results seemed as expected
Today I decided to take some water to the local fish store for testing to compare results and because I was considering purchasing my first round of hermit crabs
My salifert kits have been showing basically zero ammonia and zero nitrite
Today the fish store a test my water with a flu Val kit and comes up with something very different that is cause for me to do an emergency water change
The fluval kit shows dang near 1.2 ammonia
I bought my own second kit of the fluval brand to confirm the lfs didn’t mess up the test
I get 1.2
Test with Salifert side by side and get almos zero
what the heck.....
What do I do?
