When I said "0" I refer to PO4 ppm not TDS.

Ro Di 0
Container 0
Temp was 76 but temp for me doesn't matter since my test kit compensates
And my two Refractometer and phosphate kits are on target

Is NOT about "0" because zero is NOT zero any way. Hanna have Accuracy: @ 25?C ?0.04 ppm (mg/L) ?4% of reading. We need PO4 but , hard to balance and test (organic). Hard to keep down.
