Trying to decipher these water tests!!!!

So I tested my tank completly this evening and I was just wondering what is the best light to look at these vials under, because everywhere i walk in my house they seem to change color!!!!

these are what i had i believe it is ammonia, ph, nitrite, phosphate, nitrate, calcium

Look at them under a full spectrum daylight lamp, aka 6500k. I have an led lamp just for this purpose.

+1. A nice little trick is to also look straight down the vial instead of across it.

Depends on the test kit. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions closely.

Considering those are API test kits, it will work just fine. Judging by the photo his nitrates are the only real issue. I would say 30ish.
