First check the water that you are buying. LFS's run a bunch of water in their systems and its always good to know what they are selling you.
What is your bio-load and how often do you change your water. Have you had the nitrate read by another test kit just in case?

Okay! tested the LFS Water and its good. i have about 20lbs of LR and 1inch of sandbed. I have 2 Ocellaris, 1 Sixline, 1 damsel, Red hermit, Cleaner, 6 Turbos, LPS, Sebae and BTA. I will bring my water to the LFS to check later on today. Thanks
