I almost didn’t release this
I almost didn’t release this video! My nitrate test results, using four different test kits, were shocking, humbling, embarrassing and have me rethinking my maintenance routine...and wondering about the accuracy and reliability of these popular water tests.
Should I be worried? Am I over reacting to the results? Watch, hear my conclusions at the end and let me know what you think.
In this video I use four different kits to test a sample of water from my heaviest stocked tank, my 100 gallon.
The kits I used were:
API Freshwater Master Test Kit
Seachem Multi Test Nitrite / Nitrate Test Kit
Salifert Nitrate (NO3)
Tetra EasyStrips 6 in 1
The results went from "concerning" to "shocking and alarming!"
But should I trust the results? And if I do, what would be my best course of action? What would you do with these results?
Take a look and share your thoughts in the comments below. I'm anxious to hear what you have to say (my "Convo Gang" buddies) and to find out what your experience has been with these kits.
We all learn from each other!
