I've never tried to get a reading, it's not something I've ever been too concerned with. I assume using my zeovit reactor has an effect, as I have no algae at all. I stopped using the reactor for a while, and grew a few different types of algae, from cyano to wafer. Within weeks of using the reactor, the algae is almost gone. Good enough for me.
