Iron Levels

[jeff_hopkinson]

Hi, merry xmas to everyone, now, the FE test for chelated iron states 0.25 - 0.5 ideal, above 0.5 to much iron, perform water change, my test was 1.0 did 15per cent water change but test is still the same, is iron level too high, and what will happen, is it a danger level.

All iron test kits are all notoriously unreliable, the nature of iron and its compounds make it virtually impossible to measure. If your plants (and fish) are fine then I wouldn't worry. I have never tested for iron.
