Trident Reagent Guide

[Brasileiro561]

I designed and printed this needle guide for trident reagent. it'll keep your needle straight up and down and you won't have that high calcium problem anymore. It has been tested by myself and a friend.

$25 for 3 shipped

What exactly do you mean by high calcium problem?

 

[Brasileiro561]

There has been a lot of people reporting that towards the end of the bottle the calcium test results starts to go up ( I was one of those person) Neptune said it was because the needle was in an angle so it would suck up air as well as fluid. That would cause the measurements to be off. (instead of using 10ml of reagent it was using less bc of air being sucked in) this will keep the needle straight up and down

YEP! This is so. I watched my Trident calcium reading climb to 800 over a three day period. My calcium had previously been dropping from 470. I had stopped dosing calcium four days before the Trident started showing a rise. Checking the Reagent bottle, I found it was low. Put a new bottle of reagent in. The calcium reading dropped back to 470. Therefore, I can only believe that @Brasileiro561 is correct in his observation. Headed to my 3D printer now to see if I can replicate what he did.

@Urbanknight go for it man I don’t mind. it works great just make sure the top where It connects to the lid is very thin so it doesn’t raise the needle too much. Sold about 30 so far and no complaints

Got mine yesterday - thanks

Quick tip for everybody that got the guide. Once you get your first test error. Reset you reagent without switching the bottles. That will give you a few extra days. Before I put the guide I’d get 1 month and 3 weeks. With guide I get 2 months. This is the first time I reset it and kept the same bottle. I got 2 months and 7 days.
