I did a 10% WC yesterday morning, and about 2 weeks off from a 30% WC.



And you guys are all right, it all took but 2 minutes to achieve this test.
Lol good for you buddy, now go and buy an alk tester and at bare minimum test ever week.
If you're using IO salt the alk is usually higher like 9-9.5 so this helps raise your alk abit in smaller WC.

With the salifert I can do test in under 30 seconds. And I usually try and test every Friday morning at 11am when the lights are out.
