Some discussions suggest adding KNO3 (or other source of K) to planted tanks,
so I bought a turbidity test kit. My tanks have been recently cleaned,


What is the brand of the potassium test kit?

is good but don't say what is not good. K - way in excess of the two turbidity
standards in the kit.


What are the two standards in the kit? I can not imagine any problem
with excess potassium. It would need to be MASSIVELY in excess. I'd
intentionally dosed 30ppm or so in my 75g without any problems. I
currently add about 20ppm per week.
