Testing reagents

[Mojo423]

I am currently testing my water parameters using calcium,phosphate,ammonia,nitrate and nitrite,and high range ph testing. Are there other tests I should perform?

What type of tank are you running?
FOWLR?
Reef?

Let’s start there.

Sorry it’s a reef tank. 75 gallon,60 lbs of live rock. 2 clowns, lawnmower blenny,diamond goby,colt coral and Alveopora.Mushroom colony also.

since you have some Alveopora (LPS), go and get an alkalinity tester (Hanna checker is what I use). I’d also pickup a magnesium test too.

Other than that, you’ve got the essentials already. Weekly water changes should keep your levels in check for the most part since you don’t have an SPS tank sucking up your alk and cal.

Thanks for the info! I do 15 gallons a week water change.
