Hi all,
I'm new to the forum but have basically had a tropical planted tank for about two years. I'm trying to get my tank into a situation whereby the plants manage the nitrates and was wondering if anyone's had success with that? In addition to the plants in my tank I've also got a pothos growing out the top.
All the water readings in my tank are good except for Nitrates, but my issue is with the tests. I've currently got two tests and they both give very different readings. The NT labs test data my nitrate levels are low whereas the Tetra says they are high.
I'd really like to know of an accurate test or at least something half decent and if anyone has any tips for me.
Cheers!
