If you're testing for chloramines, make sure the test kit is testing for "total chlorine" or "combined chlorine," not for "free chlorine." A test for "free chlorine" would misleadingly read zero in chloraminated water.

also by testing for amonia you can determin if there is chloramines present.

heres a good read http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2003-11/rhf/feature/
