Well, I finally decided to join the crowd especially since I want to grow out some nice sps pieces. After doing some reading on potassium I decided to pick up a test kit.
I found Amazon had a Salifert available, so a day later it was in my mailbox.
Having ran out of my Reef crystals last week I picked up a small bag of regular IO until I could switch over to the Red Sea blue bucket.
I tested today with the salifert and added 14 drops to get blue which shows 360ppm on salifert's scale. Within acceptable range but I'm shooting for a little higher.
IlL be using this thread to document especially when I swit to the blue bucket.
Im also interested in your potassium dosing calculators. If you have you you like and find accurate, please post here. I'll be dosing food grade potassium chloride fwiw.
Happy reefing.
