Is there an easier way to test nitrates besides trying to match up colors that are .0001 different in the color spectrum?
This is my latest test on my biocube. It had always been around 5ppm. Not sure if I got a die off or what, but it jumped up to the first pic. After water change and a carbon bag change, it's down to the second pic, but still not as low as I'm used to. And I can't quite tell exactly where it is! It seems like any lighting change or any shadow cast COMPLETELY changes the reading.
