Yea, usually 30ppm is used as the level to aim at so you're doing good. You're using two nutrafin kits right?
Whats you're mix?

i have got the canister and a 2 litre bottle both going into a ladder in my tank, the mix i used was 1 t/s of baking sodar bicarb, half a t/s of yeast and sugar which craynard recomended (thanks craynard)
