ok with this new kit in hand (Salifert) KH/ALK. I took test from main diplay tank.
I did as directions said. I used 4 ml of water and dropped in the "whole" 1 ml syringe (drop by drop) and it changed color on the "last" drop. So I just want someone that is more familar with this test kit to tell me what the results would be so I can confirm my results. please and thanks. according to the chart 0.98 is 0.3 dkh ( I should be up around 7-11dkh) or 0.56mls on the syringe correct ? to be in normal range.

When you mix up your new water do you add the salt first and then the water? Is there a white residue in the mixing bucket?

Do you know what you want to set your parameters at? Have you set specific levels that you want to achieve?
