OK, I have read that the liquid test kit is the best way to go vs the test strips. it should be more accurate. I am having difficulty with these test results. I figured I would use my new test kit and then compare it to the test strips that I get read for free at my local pet store. My results do not match and my ammonia and Nitrite levels are very high. Am I doing anything wrong or are my tanks just a mess? these are new tanks. the 2.5 and 5 gallon have been up and running for at least 15 days. I did have them up before that but did a complete water change in both and started over. the fish I have right now seem to be OK but the levels are not.
