lakshwadeep Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 You need to also measure alkalinity in conjunction with calcium. Link to comment
BKtomodachi Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 It depends entirely on your system, your maintenance regimen, and the types of species you intend to keep. Many people really don't need to test for anything. Link to comment
