Reminds me of the strips for pools. Pretty cool.

They really need a phosphate test to make this a perfect quick check. They can drop the specific gravity.

I’m sorry to be too direct but this is just a waste of time and money no? I usually just care about Alk, N&P. The Alk range of 5-10 is pretty much useless to me. Nitrate is somewhat useful but no Phosphate! So far, it’s essentially just a nitrate test strip. ;)

Happy Friday and sorry again — just had to put it out there. You can ignore grumpy, old me.

I think for a fast and dirty, its fine, but an ALK reading between 5-10 is kinda like saying Wednesday to Sunday .. very ISH...
