I discovered I had a bad Salifert nitrite kit, which I bought about 2-3
months ago. Beware of falsely high readings. I wasted a couple months
waiting for a new tank with uncured live rock to cycle. It was done
all along! My LFS said several kits have been returned.

Habib has always been very good about replacing expired reagents.
Heck- he even sniffed me out after I just wondered publically what was going
on with my pH. I didn't even have to find him and ask- he found me and
replaced my bottle.

That kind of customer support has nearly disappeared in these times- it is
extraordinary!!
