Reading test vials..

[Oceanicsublimat]

what is the best way to read the vial colors? Looking at the bottom or just as the thing says.. which is on the vials side on the card. cuz I was told that the bottom is easier... which it seems to be more concentrated color..

They are tricky to read sometimes. Just use your best judgement when interpeting the colors.

I hold mine up to the chart against the white background like it says. If they are mixed well, I wouldn't think there would be a difference.

try to use daylight bulbs or natural sunlight too. yellow incandescent bulbs can make some test kit colors look weird.
