I finally received my API GH & KH test kit today, and I've tested my water, but I'm having difficulty understanding the results. I understand two things: 1) I followed the directions, and 2) Failing to interpret these results makes me kind of stupid.
For the KH, it took 1 drop of the solution to make the water a pale yellow, but the leaflet said that it should be a "bright yellow." I added 4 more drops and it is still yellow, but not what I would consider "bright."
For the GH, it took 1 drop of the solution to turn the water a pale green.
Could someone please help me interpret these results? I feel like a moron for having to ask, but I'm really at a loss. I bought this kit because I've recently begun keeping snails, and I want to be sure I can keep them healthy.
