Do reagents go bad? My expiration date says 2020, but my measurements are so out of whack I cannot think of what else it could be. [emoji2955]

I use Hanna testers
Today I tested Alk, calcium, and phosphate

They are all off, where I would like them, but my calcium is at 600?!?
I have no idea what could have spiked it so high

Do you think your levels are where the tester is showing? I have used all hanna testers well past their expiration date, also had LFS run tests on my water and they were spot on to my tests
