Frustrating. Hope you get it sorted out tomorrow and get to get some fish! My api results were always accurate. I got sea chem and salifert test bc everyone said API was crap, but they always matched my other tests.
I hope so too!! I’m visiting a new LFS tomorrow that all locals rave about so I’ll see how it goes. I’m definitely going with the mindset of buying like 20-30lbs of rock if the price is right so I hope they live up to the expectations lol and I’ll pick up a test and ask them to do one from a water sample if they’re able to.
I’m not in a rush to add fish because I don’t want casualties but definitely think the tank is ready since I have a couple of corals on one of the rocks and they look happy as hell just like in my buddy’s tank.
