They say Prime should be 8.3 pH - mine is 3.4 pH -
Seachem have suggested perhaps that I have
contaminated the Prime source with tank water via the
pipette they provide (not so as I decant into
measuring cylinder only used for Prime) or I leave the
bottle open (again not so for more than 60 seconds).
And foil seal on bottle was intact on purchase.
Anyway my Prime was off !! Makes one wonder ....
But if you look at the Jemaquatics chart - looking at
pHs, temps and dilutions and 1-2ppm in the drum and
doing the maths I doubt ammonia would have been the
full culprit. Maybe more like straight
chlorine/chloramine if the Prime was not working !!
Thanks to Adrian (great site and CD Your Royal
Rainbownessness - "we are not worthy" etc), Phil &
