Has anyone had any issues with the HR tester testing at a consistent 0?
I’ve had this tester for a year now and ever since, it’s always tested 0.
I don’t have my old salifert or Red Sea test kits any longer to double check and I would like to avoid going back to them. But that may change if my tester is faulty.
For a little background, the tank is a year and a half old. It’s a 150 gallon with 15 fish of assorted sizes. Before the Hanna tester, I was usually between 5-10 nitrates. My only filtration is a filter sock and Bashsea skimmer.
I have no hair algae, Dino’s, cyano, or anything like that. In fact, the tank is doing pretty great; Corals and coralline are growing and healthy and the fish are well I should also add that I feed quite often.
I’ve never had a tank with no nitrates before. Especially a semi mature tank like mine currently is. Do I even need to worry, or should I spend the money and get a different tester?
If so, which kit does everyone recommended these days?
