Just results on PH testing, the family looked bored - no idea why.
Electronic PH tester arrived today and put it to use. My daughter re-checked liquid test colours. My tank is always at the end of the normal PH / high PH liquid test (I'm sticking with that excuse for buying the electronic unit).
Strips:-
Tank ~7
Tap ~7.5
Liquid:-
Tank ~7.4 - 7.6
Tap 8.1
Electronic:-
Tank 7.3
Tap 8.0
(no gas off period on tap, got a bucket standing overnight).
The tester is I think +/- 0.2 but the difference between tank and tap was more than I was expecting, especially as I did a 50% water change last weekend.
