Is it ok if I rant a little?

How can test kits give such different results? I'm talking a 100ppm calcium difference and a 2.0 DKH difference.

I want my sps to do well but it stinks when all these test kits give such different results!!

Rant off...for now....
I think the goal is consistency. I would worry less about variation across brands as long as your results are consistent within the same kind of test. If it's inconsistency with a single test kit, I'd suggest trying a different kit as it may be a bad reagent... :confused:

Good luck!! :cool:
