i just purchased the natureef calcium test kit. it doesnt give any information or chart on how many drops equal what level of calcium.
mine was 22 drops. but it doesnt tell you to know what that equals in calcium... like 440 or whatever.
does anyone know if there is a chart or something somwhere i can use to get the calcium equivalant.????

thanks in advance

thanks you guys i will try to call them to see if they have a chart.

okay after rereading the box again. it says that each drop is equal to 20 mg of calcium per liter of water. okay . so the problem is i dont have any idea how many liters of water is actaully in our tank ??

Do a search on google for how many liters equal a gallon :)
 
okay well yeah i understand that. what im saying is with rock and everything how many gallons are actually in there.
 
You will just have to make an educated guess...
 
well is there a better calcium testing kit to use. one that would give me a more acurate test ???????
