Hanna Phosphate vs Phosphours- which is more accurate?

[Reefahholic]

They have both high and low "Phosphate" and high and low "phosphorus."

I'm fixing to buy one and don't know which is the better one. What's the difference?

You want the 736 ULR phosphorus checker.

The low range phosphate tester only does +- .04ppm phosphate.

The low range phosphorus tester does +- .015ppm phosphate.

To convert phosphorus in ppb to phosphate in ppm (what we are familiar with) you do...

(Number Displayed x 3.066)/1000

Get plenty of reagent packs. You will go through a lot of them getting your testing procedure repeatable. That is the hardest part.

bought and stayed with the phosphate checker. At the end of the day, the difference is negligible. Testing is one thing, I think one also need to observe their tanks

I appreciate you brother! thanks...

The phosphorus checker is much more accurate.
