I have the ability to do the following tests at this time (all tests are API)-
High range PH
Ammonia
Nitrite
Nitrate
Calcium
Carbonate Hardness
Phosphate
Since I haven't had a reef for very long I am currently testing all of these things about every 5 days. I know that I don't need to test this often, especially for a few of these tests but would like some opinions on how often. It is a biocube-29 gallon, Clown, dottyback, anemone, mushrooms, zoas, and 4-5 other odds and ends (don't know all of the names).
I feel all of these tests are easy to read with the exception of PH. The colors I get don't seem to match the card very well, can anyone suggest another test or even electronic tester for PH.
Anything else I should be testing for?
1) how often?
2) Other PH testing method?
3) Other tests?
Thanks,
Brian
