    Scoffer....YIKES!!! 8.8 is high! Ammonia becomes more toxic the higher the pH! I would do a water change, but test the new water before adding.

    How did it get that high! I have trouble keeping mine at 8.1! What do you add....


    I have the salifert Iodide/Iodine test kit. Anyone else have difficulty reading that stupid test! Differentiate between this pee-yellow green color or that pee-green yellow color through the SIDE of the vial! Any pointers on that kit???
