Well I've finally gotten registered here on Reef Central!:eek2: Yeah!:eek2: I guess I oughta ask a question...When measuring nitrates are we interested in total nitrate or nitrogen-nitrate? The low level kits I have seen generally measure nitrogen-nitrate and the regular kits measure total nitrate. I know zero on either scale is ideal but I live in the real world of a first time setup and live with some nitrates. Any thoughts?

I usually convert my nitrate-nitrogen on my Lamotte kit by multiplying by 4.4 to get the nitrate reading. What kind of kit are you using for this test?
