Hi all I have put posts in here at this site & another about my 6x2x2 tank getting high nitrates even 3 days after a third water change ... Well, I'm here to tell you all that your test kit might be old or shonky like mine was... Explanation A few said to me to check my chemicals & I did but it only has a number, no date of expiry ... but anyway I was going on the fact my daughter brought me a whole Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate & pH kit for me only a week before hand. So I couldn't consider that it was old ... Anyway I got a new Nitrate kit & I was amazed after doing several Nitrate tests on all my 3 tanks with both the old & new test kits ....
Results were plain as day all the old test kit were "High" & all my new test kits were 10-20ppm I'm so happy now :thm: ...
So everyone if you suspect your reading are high & shouldn't be, get a newer kit like me ...
So the test kit maybe sat on a shelf for who knows could be a couple of years .. Thanks
