Has anyone else had this result; The water in the test tube is supposed to
turn blue and then bright yellow; the number of drops it takes to turn it
bright yellow is the degrees of carbonate hardness; my test tube water has
never turned blue first it always starts to change from clear to yellow with
the first drop; by about 3-5 drops its bright yellow; I've put in as much as
twenty drops and it stays yellow all the way; If I am interpreting these
results correctly my water is between 3-5 degrees which is very soft water
which is excellent for plants and Amazonian type fish such as stingrays;
Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks, Jeff A.
AM Test in Redmond will do an official test for $ 12.00; I use them to test
sewage all the time so they might run a test for me on the cuff;
