The thing is is that it worked yesterday. I follow the directions, and it looks clear like water, when the chart says that 0ppm of nitrite should be green. What's wrong here? |

This might be the case with the nitrite and nitrate tests?  -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian. |
