I just got my new Sera test kits and all my readings are way off from what they tested last week with a buddies API and salifert kits....Are these kits any good?
Sera...this morning before lights on
ph.....8
kh......8
no3......50 mg/l

ca....440
My buddy is on his way over with his kits so I am gonna retest with his....I have also been dosing MB7 for the last 6 days for a med-high nutrient system....8ml a day 1/2 of the recommended dose....I would think the MB7 would make the NO3 drop some but it has went up...was reading around 20 on API kit last week.....What is going on.....I do 10g water change every week with coralife salt there is 5 fish in the system 2 ORA naked clowns purple pseduochromis bi-color blenny and a mandarin that eats frozen mysis I feed small amount 2 x daily.
