Don't measure phosphate but I use RODI water.
Calcium is at 460 and alk is at 2.1, kH is 5.8. I know this is low but I have been working on trying to gradually get my calcium down. It was way high and I have been gradually letting it fall.
I don't measure magnesium either. I figured that I should be ok here with water changes.
I tested about a week and a half ago. I will test tomorrow and see where my levels are at. I may even pick up a phosphate test kit. I am sorry to say that it is hard to keep up on my maintenance schedule during the summer as well as I do in the winter. But I do small tasks each day. It is hard to find the time to do major cleans... Maybe the explosion in growth is a warning to me that i have been slipping in my duties.
