Re: What ammonia test kit to get?

Quote:
-$1,000.00 in animals I had for 10 -15 yeras, all dead due to a contaminated seamix. I thought when I came home, no bg deal, just a slight snowstorm. Next morning when I get up all dead. See, I was just like you, why test for ammonia in an established tank
Wow that's messed up ! Although in a situation like that you would never know until you start seeing your fish drop then it would be too late. I guess you should always test you freshly mixed ASW before adding. Reminds me of the big IO problem with alk in the 30's dKH
