View Full Version : Copper Test??? Cajunman Dec 21st, 2005, 04:19pm I'm going to test my tank for Copper and was planning on using Aquarium Pharm copper test kit that test 0-4ppm. Will this be sufficent? thanks. Castor Dec 21st, 2005, 05:54pm It should be, if can take more than one sample, that would be good. I'm kinda paranoid like that. How long does it take to complete the test? Felix Cajunman Dec 21st, 2005, 06:01pm I'm not sure on how long the test takes, i haven't bought a kit yet! i'm going to do that tomorrow, and didn't want to have to ask LFS guy! cuttlegirl Dec 21st, 2005, 07:21pm You could try reading the directions... Cajunman Dec 21st, 2005, 07:41pm You could try reading the directions... OOOOHH Sassy! I like that! I think i will read the directions, before I BUY it! thanks for the help! Castor Dec 22nd, 2005, 07:43am I'm not sure which one it is, but I remember doing a heavy metal test that took like 2 hours, and I think it was copper. Back in my days in frigid Maine! But I digress, I would do 2 seperate tests in your case and compare the results of the two to one another. I have never used anything to treat disease, aside from the fresh water dip,(very rarely!) but I am a little on the paranoid side of everything! cthulhu77 Dec 22nd, 2005, 09:57am This is a good no-nonsense article: http://www.aquascienceresearch.com/APInfo/TestKit.htm Cajunman Dec 22nd, 2005, 11:42am Thanks for the link! and for taking the time to help! cthulhu77 Dec 22nd, 2005, 11:58am Hey, that's what we're here for! No problem...now, off to do some last minute shopping (yeah, yeah, I know...what can I say, it must be a guy thing ) |
