Thanks. Working with support, it looks like my unit is defective. The magnet pills are losing orbit with the thicker reagents so they dont mix well enough to give a good reading

what test are you using I use the API Prime Reef Master Test Kit and it has no magnet pills

API Prime Reef Master Test Kit uses "solutions" and works just fine. There is shaking samples.

So you ordered them all separately... The API prime Reef master test kit comes with all of the test together instead of having to spend tons of money some where else. API prime Reef master test kit is only $30

Did you test the new magnetic stirrer? I am having an issue with api nitrate tests as well. They are coming out 10x lower than my salifert test kits. I read there is another update for the machine that you can only get by request to customer support. It has been 24 hours and I still have not gotten a response. I am going to do a visual inspection of the test now.

I am using the tropic marin nitrate test kit and have no problem with them.
