Looks like the tank is still cycling, during the cycling process only test AM,NI, and NA, your PH will be all over the place until your tank is done cycling and becomes more stable.

Sorry, to be more specific I was meaning that the results with our salt seems to be repeatable - 450 and 460 being so close.

Oceanic... I shoulda known. I have always used that salt and I love that salt. Nobody around me carries it without special ordering, so I was kinda hoping you used a different one that would be easier for me to find...
Oh well, I better tell my LFS to get on the ball and get some in.
