Nitrates under 1 ppm????

How do you test for that. every test I have used does not show a difference between 0 and 10 (at least on perceptible in a test tube) and the color change between 0 and 20 is insignificant. I find it hard to believe that 1ppm is possible with anything alive in the tank. Everyone I have talked to with MASSIVE reef tanks say under 20 is acceptable and over 30 is not.

My LPS corals are doing great and my tank stays around 20 ppm. 15 after a water change 25 before.

come on 1 - 5 ppm......I will NEVER believe it without daily PWC's
