what kind do you use?

i use quick dip...

It is important to keep moisture out of the bottle. Dip both pads into aquarium water for one second and remove. DO NOT SHAKE EXCESS WATER FROM STRIP. Hold strip level for 15 seconds. Compare Free Chlorine (pad nearest dipping hand) and Total Chlorine (end pad) to color chart. To determine Chloramine reading, subtract Free Chlorine reading from Total Chlorine reading. Readings should be 0.0.


i got test from tap, aged, and primed water

all the reading are the same

Total Chlorine = 0
Free Chlorine = .5


so 0-.5 = -.5 chloramine ???
 
-.5 is what the math says.


How old are the strips? It should be on the bottom of the bottle
