have you tested for potassium?

 

[Lninwa]

I have not tested for potassium. Do you know of a good K test kit? My LFS owner said whatever test he sells takes 30 min. If it takes that long I'm willing to take the time

 

[Budman's Corals]

I use red sea but it is a challenge with that kit.. im about to send a sample out to get tested. it might be worth it

 

[Lninwa]

Where are you going to send your test?

 

[Budman's Corals]

I've sent to triton lab last time but it's been about a year.. but would like to see how close I am to my other parameters also

What lights are they under? I also think your N03 and p04 is a bit high.

Salifert Potassium test kit is much more easier to use and it takes less time 2-3 min max
