LOL, typical. And here i've been feverishly doing waterchanges wondering why my nitrates won't go down (although at 5-10 I suppose there is still cause for concern) but I can live with 5-10

Thanks for the info!!

Christy, so does this mean that my nitrates are even lower too? or did we use a different kit? or whas that the phos? i cant remember.

I don't think we did nitrates, just phosphate and it was pretty low. Heck I dunno. If we did nitrates then yes, they're way lower. I don't remember which kit we used but one of them is junk as I was using it for backup and it always confirmed the salifert one. Turns out it expired in 05/06 so and I'm turfing it.

Bring some more water by the next time you're around and we can give it another try.
