I just tested and my ammonia looks like this?? See the bottom of the tube. The bottle is getting close to being empty and I do shake all my test bottles before use. Thoughts??
Supposed to be yellow when it comes out of bottle to start.
I would think something is wrong?
If almost empty just remember to get new one next time at LFS...
It kind of looks like a precipitate to me, which (if I recall correctly from some super basic chemistry courses) would essentially just be useless insoluble stuff at the bottom of the bottle in this case.
I just picked up a new bottle and boy mine must really be out dated. The colors are new yellow to green and you have to use 2 bottles now instead of one.

Now you can share the confusion most have have over what shade?
At least we are all talking about same test now...
Sooo , why are you testing for ammonia? Is your tank new or are you having issues?
