API, Salifert and Lamotte.

They all came close to what is expected. Lomotte was very close to the lab result so I use that test for Alk.

As for NO3, NO2 and NH3 I use API. (NO2 never gets used since its a transition compound)

For Ca and Mg I use Salifert but I think API has a decent Ca test kit since Ca is easy to test. I wish API made a Mg test kit. Mg on the other hand is not easy and only a few companies offer test kits. I use Salifert because Im familiar with it. I hear Elos has a good Mg kit but I have never used it.

Very good thanks, you have confirmed my findings and added some.

Hey Batman you watch South Park?

I love South Park!

I haven't really changed anything up other than dosing 6 drops of Brightwells AA's every few days and I just started dosing strontium the other day. I use Seachem's brand power Strontium and dose on teaspoon daily.

Maybe you are the "Coon"!

Is there a way to MOD a Tunzi to get more Vortec like flow? Besides how you did it, I like the controlls.

Have you heard of the Zeozym + ZeoBak remedy for cyano?

I have not tried it yet but the zeo heads are saying its very effective at killing cyano. My temporary solution has been to increase my flow to 50-60x.

For cyano, dose your usual amount of Bak + ZZ & dissolve, then allow 6-10hrs settling then dose directly into one's display with the skimmer off for a couple of hrs.

I will look at that, thanks. How do you use NEOZEO? (what kind of reactor, bag, etc) How long have you been using it?

Also I use cyno as tool, tells me when water is not up to speed. I let it go for a few days then suck it down the drain. I went too nutty with feeding, and pumps are not 100% clean in that tank.

Thanks
