starting sps

[BucNtears]

I just started getting some sps and have been trying to get all my levels dailed in. Here are the results from todays test. Granted the Mg and alk are alittle on the low side..

temp 80.4
ph 8.16
cal. 420
alk. meq/l 3.2 dkh 8.96
mag 1200
n02 0
n03 0

How does everything else look?

looks good

Id bump up the mag 100 or so(you dont have to ...i just like it higher)

and its very unlikely your PO4 is zero. If it is. you need to bring it up or you wont do well with sps long term.

edit- NM you didnt say PO4. lol

it would be good to get a accurate reading of this

looks good as long as it is consistent.
