    Aquaboy, do you live near Something Fishy in Northamton. I was just there the other day it was a great place, and decent prices.

    I test mine whenever I do a water change, apart from that I don't bother!

    So, I ended up get a refractometer today, turns out that everything was ok, my levels were 1.025. I can see the refractometer being a very useful tool.

    I tested ours the other day first time I had been in the basement since early December took a look at the skimmer and pump and Ca and Kalk. reactors and saw the refractometer next to the dry F/W storage barrel I figured what the hell . It was right where it was in Dec. 1.025 .
