I am wondering what test you do and in what order of desirability and frequency. I have only the following test kits or gear and am wondering what I should add next. Also looking for recommendations on a upgrade for specific gravity instrumentation. On a day to day basis I rely on how my corals are looking and how my skimmer is performing. So I am curious what everyone else tests for an what level of importance they assign to it?
I do my tests in the following order.
Specific gravity...Whenever I add evaporation water or do a water change 2-3 times per week
Calcium - Not often enough
Nitrate - Ditto
Nitrite - Ditto
Ammonia - Ditto
After my last reading everything was good...although my calcium level was at the top of the range so I have slowed down my Kent two part calcium and buffer additions.
