Hanna Phosphate Pocket Photometer~REVIEW

Mon, 12 Jul 2010 06:03:00 -0700
I recently purchased the new Hanna Phosphate Pocket Photometer from Premium Aquatics.com
Here I will list my experience and what i liked and disliked.

First off, testing for PO4 with dry tests like Seachem or Aquarium Pharmaceuticals renders a mixed bag of results. From test to test you get quite a different reading and many readings on low nutrient systems say zero, yet there is evidence that PO4 exists and is elevated within the tank. To get around the problem of hobby test kits not giving an actual reading I decided to try a much more accurate photometer.

I ordered the photometer from this link and it shipped the next day.......
