Oops, sorry I missed your listing earlier in the thread. That test kit isn't a particularly accurate test kit, but we don't need particularly accurate test kits for everything. the ones that we should spend the extra few bucks on and get good quality would be Calcium, alkalinity, magnesium, and nitrate. Don't worry about your pH. Read the section on pH in Myka's Guide to Calcium, Alkalinity, etc..... What are the actual readings for Calcium and Alkalinity? Low magnesium could also be a contributing factor.
