There is a bit of human error in the tests since they rely on the human eye to identify a minute color change. Any parameter change is perhaps debatable within 20-30 but mine seem to be rather large.
However, this is the first time I have checked all parameters seven days in a row so we will see where it goes and how it drives change in my tank.
Yeah, you're off to a great start for getting control. Would you be able to test your newly mixed salt to make sure it's not it that is low already?
