Hanna does read higher on ALK (not that high though). I would check to make sure the rod is sitting all the way down into the reagent bottle and you don't have any kinks in your lines. There is also a break in period if I remember before readings are accurate. ALK is the one out of the three that has always been spot on for me.
So if hanna likes to read higher on alk. Are you saying that if hanna showing me 7.1 my alk is lower than 7? Now thats super messed up
Well, yes and no. Hanna does read like .5 higher than the trident....but who is to say which one is more accurate. I always go by the Trident reading because the ALK readings are very consistent. I dose based on those......the CA and Mg on the other hand both read high for me using the Trident so I turned off automatic dosing based on those numbers. The ALK is the only one I care about anyways.
You would think if its a firmware issue everyone else would have that problem as well. My friend bought one at the same time as me. And his is 0.1 different from the hanna. This is driving me crazy. I knew trident had issues. But i didnt realize it would be off the start
I actually just tested the bottle with my hanna checker and its 9.5 and the bottle says 8.5. Omg this is absolutely insane to me and a circle of confusion.
Yes but i need to see if my alk is actually 6. As i need to raise it. I dont want an alk of 6 under any circumstances.
Mine has been lower by 1.5-2 dKh this week also. It’s usually just 0.5 dKh lower than Hanna and Red Sea pro. I’ll break it apart and clean the lines and see if that helps when it’s time to change the fluids again
What’s wrong with 6 dKh?
I actually just ordered some new sample lines. They’re $5 each
