Help for us colorblind people doing watertests
Found a app that helps me out tremendously..
LedScope for Color-Blind by MkrScope (android) Some screenshots 0ppm PO3  0.25ppm PO3  0.5ppm PO3  The target pip is adjustable, but it doesnt focus.. Free trial app, no adds.. The X turns the led on/off Gonna do a few tests tonight and post them to see how close it is...

Funny I was just looking at color matching and detecting apps today but for my artist daughter asking what color everything is.

So, I did the tests for Ca, KH, and MG (Red Sea) and got...
KH 8.4 Ca 400 Mg 1340 These were very easy to do, as you are just watching for a number change rather than trying to see the color change.....

Phosphates I would suggest a different kit like the Hanna Checker, hach, or elos professional. API is not made for the very low ranges we try and achieve. But for the sake of this .25 Nitrite 0
