TM salt low in calcium.
Hi,
I just measured my new water mix of a new bucket. Salinity 1.025 Alk 9.0 Ca 350 Is it normal for regular TM or I just got a bad bucket? Thanks, Loc |

Maybe your test kit is no good. You might try another test kit to confirm the result.

I just checked with a new salifert ca test kit, it reads the same 350. Anyway, I will add some turbo ca additive to level it to 420.

sounds about right for TM regular. i test at 340 - 350, been through 2 buckets of it, but i still prefer it over TM pro
