I am not very good at math...and I am hoping that in order to check ph levels and all that it doesn't require math...otherwise, I am in trouble...unless it is one of those where the water will change color if something needs to be added. Also, I am wondering, is there something that you can buy in order to test ph and all the other levels...that way, you don't have to buy more than 1 testing thing?

Thanks

I like the AP master test kit. It has liquid that you mix with tank water in test tubes and compare the color to a color card. Sometimes it's hard to tell which color things are but there's no math involved. smile.gif

I'm still kind of afraid that I won't do the cycling of the tank/water testing right...but if I have problems, I will come post here...Ima need a lot of help I think lol

it is actually really easy to do the testing.
all you have to do is fill little tubes with tank water up to the line on the tube. Then you add drops from the test bottles, and it tells you on the bottle how many drops to add. that's it. Just make sure to read the directions and you'll be fine!
and definately ask here if you have any problems, everyone here is very nice and helpful smile.gif

In convex quadrilateral HMGS, the diagonals HG and MS meet at point O and themeasure of angle HOM is 30°. Given that the area of ∆HOM is 1, ∆MOG is 2, ∆GOSis 8, and ∆SOH is 4, what is the product of the lengths of the diagonals (HG)(MS)?

Quick! Quick!

I don't like testing the water... the test bottles contain HYDROCHLORIC ACID so it kind of makes me nervous... unsure.gif
