API Test Kit ???

Just another example of why it pays to read instructions.

As my Dad used to say: "If it doesn't work, hit it. If that doesn't work, kick it. And if that doesn't work, read the instructions." :laugh:

Straight from the API instruction booklet that comes with the test kit...

"Read the test results by matching the test solution against the *** Color Chart. The tube should be viewed against the white area beside the color chart. Color comparisons are best made in a well-lit area. The closest match indicates the ...."

The *** is for pH, hi pH, ammonia, nitrite and nitrates. It is the same for all of these tests.

You hold the tube against the card. Much like you would hold a sample of tank water against a white background to see a tint to water to determine color of algae.

THANKS....

Excuse me, but I did not make any rude comment to your question. I saw your bump, apparrently you were not satisfied with the responses.

I quoted you the info straight from the booklet. You responded with a post that was improper and had to be edited.
