And I've often wondered about your phosphate reading. You have 0,03. What does that mean?

I'm used to keeping my phosphates at zero and at the absolute very worst, below .03
The precise salinity value is fast explained Terry. I measure with a Refraktometer and a digital thermometer. I give the results in a conversion program and this spends the precise values.

I use very expensive, but also very precise measuring of Merck. With this you can prove very small quantity PO4 precisely. A value PO4 <0.01- <0,03 is perfect in order. Absolutely 0 PO4 I believe NOBODY. There is this neither in the sea nor in the aquarium and because there is no value 0 in my eyes, I always write <0.01 = smaller o.01
