Ratio N:P and NO3:PO4
N:P 16:1 marine

Ca testing
((17.86 x dGH) – (4.1 x Mg ppm)) / 2.5 = Ca ppm

(ppm dGH - (4.1 x Mg ppm)) /2.5 = Ca ppm
-------------------------------------------------------
Mg testing
((17.86 x dGH) - (2.5 x Ca ppm)) / 4.1 = Mg ppm

(ppm dGH - (2.5 x Ca ppm)) /4.1 = Mg ppm

Hagen Nutrafin, Ca test in 10 ml
((20 x GH drops) - (25 x Ca drops)) /4.1 = Mg ppm

Hagen Nutrafin, Ca test in 5 ml
((20 x GH drops) - (50 x Ca drops)) /4.1 = Mg ppm
-------------------------------------------------------
GH testing
(2.5 x Ca ppm) + (4.1 x Mg ppm) = GH ppm

((2.5 x Ca ppm) + (4.1 x Mg ppm)) / 17.86 = dGH

Test Kit calibration
To get to know the product line, make a test solution and see how the colors look like. This way you know what you are dealing with. Different lighting, wall paint, etc. change results dramatically. You can use a regular kitchen bucket ~2.5 gall / 10 liter and PPS solutions.


NO3
KNO3 - 20 gram in 500 ml (or SS - Standard Solution by PPS-Classic)

2 ml in 10 litre = 5 ppm

TDS uS ppm Conversion
There are two ways to measure TDS. The [s] Siemens and [ppm] as NaCl equivalent. Both test equipments are identical except the calibration part. The two can be converted as follows
uS = 2 x ppm
ppm = uS / 2
