Testing Questions

[cjqsmom]

I have a Neptune to monitar my PH and Temp.
I was wondering if there is a system like that for the other testing that needs to be done.
For example Amonia, Nitrite, Nitrate
I know Neptune has a ORB Probe which I have but have not installed yet but was wondering this as I went to test my water today and low and behold my color cards have disappeared so I tested the water but cant compare colors except for Nitrate.
Any help will be welcome

You don't need the ORB port for anything. It's a hit and miss for results and you can actually convert it to a secondary pH monitor for example for your calcium reactor.
There are lots of single test monitors like that, but I'm not aware of any for AquaController.

Thank you
My main concern right now is the nitrates any good systems for that?

I like to rely on manual tests for nitrates, nitrites, ammonia and such.

I do manual but like I said 3 year old took off with color cards and I cant find them. Also I would like to graph it so I can see how the tank acts thoughout the day.
