Ammonia 0 ppm (may be a little higher not exact same color but its not .25 ppm yet) Nitrite 0 ppm Nitrate 0 ppm PH 7.8 Calcium 500 ppm Phosphate 2.0 ppm Carbonate Hardness 143.2 ppm Alkalinity 2.9 (high i did the previous test incorrectly sorry) Salinity 1.021 What do ya think Flower? change or...

Haha wow thanks for ruining my thread guys :-P j/k. I got home last night and tested and everything was great i even went and baught an alk test last night.

Water change is done i have my laptop with me at a friends house currently but I'm letting my tank settle a little before i test it again, thanks again FLOWER! And FIXPC thanks for explaining the cycle i understand now. ammonia is converted into nitrite and eventually into nitrate in lamence...

Doing the water change now lights are done haha

I went and baught the other test kit today it has everything except alkalinity Flower. these r the readings: PH is 8.0 Ammonia is at 0.25 ppm Nitrite is at 0.50 ppm Nitrate is again at 0 ppm I'll check for your response later and thnx again for the help flower now time to go unbox my new lights!

And i got mine at my LFS. LFS (Saltwater) around here r expensive! my test kit was 45$

ok will do thank you for the help

Nitrate is a 0 ppm Calcium 500 ppm Carbonite hardness is at 12 dKH ppm phosphate is a 2.0 ppm Salinity 1.023

Idt that my kit has an amonia test but i shall do the test right now and repost them in a few minutes

thnx and yes i already have a master test kit(drops not strips) i got a bottle(s) part a and b of calcium booster as well as a bottle of chlorine and amonia remover ive tested everything and its all good everything is correct chemical wise. i think my tank is stable enough to start buyign a few...
