My API test kit arrived today. First readings are...
8/22/12
Ammonia: .25-.50ppm
pH: 8.0-8.2
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: 0ppm.
I forget which your supposed to have first, nitrites or nitrates, but shouldnt I have a trace of one of the two with this being a first testing? The nitrite and nitrate tests were both obviously 0ppm; the pH and ammonia were the ones I couldn't pick between, both colors looked more in between the two that one or the other.
