I know how you feel. My first tank I made almost every nooby mistake you can, it was a total pain in the but tank. Took it down when we moved, then a...
Very funny!:laughy::laughy:
You wont get the 0 reading until you add the DI. But a 6 should be fine, that's still pretty good. You just don't know the 6ppm actually is.
I have been leaving mine on all night. I thought it would help them see my fish eating brittle star before he could nab them. So far so good. I was...
