Testing parameters for EI

The kits use standard chemistry methodology that has "worked" in millions of laboratory tests, why should the chemistries immediately fail with aquarium water :confused:
- or is the inept practitioners? ;)

Sorry but I fail to see the logic in this paradigm
Hi,
Yes, I do sympathize with your failure. Millions of hobbyists also fail to take note of the fact that, as Darrel explains, the chemistry of the kits are directly affected by the presence of other ions in the water, particularly Chloride and the host of other ions in aquarium water that are not present, or are present in orders of magnitude less in those millions of laboratory test samples.

Cheers,
