I tested my ammonia in my main tank a few days ago trying to rule out that issue with my DG. When I went to put the test back in the box, the test tube rolled off my desk and broke. Can I use the test tubes from the other tests, or will that screw up my readings? What do I do now? It's a fairly new test, so I don't really wanna buy a whole new one for the tube.
 
You can use the test tubes front the others tests. Your fine. Wash them in tap water then swish it around in tank water, then preform the test. Your good to go. They sell replacements also.
 
I actually got 3 free ones from the LFS! You might want to check there also. They go through so many test kits, she had a jar full of the tubes! :lol:
