. 159... Should water tests be read with a light shining through it, and held up against the white part of the card, or in shadow, held up against the white part of the card? -- http://www.neopets.com/refer.phtml?username=moosespet My understanding is that it should be held against the card and viewed horizontally through the tube, while standing in an area of strong indirect natural sunlight. If the hue is difficult to match, then look directly down the test tube, however the intensity of the color will increase (darken), so ignore that aspect. hth -- www.NetMax.tk
