lookin good man, check your pm's, youve got one in coming

if you can get your hands on one, get away from the test kits, get a api or red sea or if you can afford em, tunze an salifert test kits, an for now, all you need to worry about is ur ph, ammonia, nitrite an nitrate, and your salinity levels as well
