does anyone use salifert mag. test, do they go bad after about 1 1/2 years? itssuppose to be the lastest i think. reason being i am getting some faulty readings. because my test tank water in vile, it turned from orange/pink to gray/blue at 0.04 almost at the end of the syringe, so to test the test kit, i made fresh salt mix from these salt mixes, and to see how much mg-3 took before the test water turned gray/blue.
reef crystals - 1.0 plus .34 = .66 remaining in syringe
tropic marin - 1.0 pllus .28 = .72 remaining in syringe
do these results look normal?? or is my test kit bad?
from further reading salifert says its okay to have air present in the rear of the syringe to make up the amount in the yellow tip area, so which should taken to do the test?
my test reading was;
1.00 - .04 = .96ml x 1500 = 1440 mg. test result
