I will concentrate to bring Po3........ oops Po4 down to below 0.10.
When you've done that we can do the next step.

Need to get a better test kit, all i can tell is that the PO4 is between 0 and 0.25. API test kit

Make sure you have enough test regent with it as the 4 to 6 months in transit the regent that comes with it might be expired and yet you will be due to false readings............. again.

So my frag racknis new to the tank, put it in about the time the troubles started. Its a cheap one off amazon. Any way looking at the magnets there are definatly pin holes in the polymer coating on the magnets. Frag rack is now not in the tank

So got my hannah checker in. Assuming it still works even though it resets when the timer hits 2:35. Anyway PO4 is at 1.5 ppm and im heating up SW to do a WC. Also i wish i realized the thing only came with 6 tests oh well. Going to get some NOPOX this weekend
