    I've determined that the color of the light bulb I've been testing under is screwing with results.

    For this reason, I hate doing color match testing. I want a Hanna checker, bad!

    Today....

    Ammonia: 0
    Nitrite: 2
    Nitrate: 20

    It makes no sense. :(

    Also, I have a couple options for money spending now that I'm not getting the mated pair...

    Option one: buy the 10000k bulb and
    a light/mangrove(or chaeto) to get my fuge going. Then three weeks later get the actinic bulb and a frag.

    Option two: get both bulbs now, then three weeks later get fuge/chaeto/frag.

    What'd ya think?

    Hopefully my nitrites will be zero by tomorrow or Saturday. After that I'll do a 10% pwc, wait a couple days and add fish.

    Also, I think I'll order the white bulb tomorrow and get the fuge light and chaeto.
