I learned yet another valuable lesson today. After doing this as long as I have i might actually be at the point where I'm forgetting old lessons learned.
Anyway. Listen up.
Test strips suck.
I've been testing KH with test strips and getting results around 6.75 for weeks now. I've been dosing soda ash to increase alkalinity with no perceived changes to the test results. Today. I got my reagent test kit delivered and ran a test.
Guesss what? dKH is over FOURTEEN! The test strip weren't in the ballpark. I don't even know if they were playing the same game. Now I need to figure out f I did some damage to my tank citizens.
