Yay!!! Those tips are a PITA anyways. I just had one fall off while I was doing the tests and ended up having to redo it.

Thank you for the tips!

Now if only I could get a replacement Magnesium test kit.

Well now I know that my Ca isn't crazy off I can finish tweaking my reactors!

I find with all the Salifert kits that if you draw the solution all the way to the top of the syringe and then plunge it all back into the bottle first. Then draw the solution up to the line as instructed. It works better this way for some reason. Don't know why but it works. I always get accurate readings this way.
