NH3 vs NH4+

[Beverly]

Okay, just finished my testing.

Equipment:

- Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Freshwater/Saltwater Nitrate test kit
- two test tubes filled with 5 ml of water from my 120g reef, one with no Prime, one with two drops of Prime added to sample and sample mixed well before adding AP chemicals

Did the testing as per instructions.

Outcome:

- in the non-Prime sample nitrate was 5 ppm
- in the 2 drops of Prime sample nitrate was 0 ppm

Hmm..... Interesting. Still going to do frequent, regular water changes to keep nitrate in check. Have no idea what long term effects of overdosing Prime in my tanks and don't want to mess around when I don't know what the heck I'm doing

Invigor, you go for it, man!
