Randy and any others,
I am curious if you think there is any consensus, or can be any system that water quality systematically?
I've been trying to get my mind around this topic for a few weeks now, but realize that I'm no closer than I was.
In the scientific literature, we have subjective ratings from polluted to pristine, usually with no measurements attached.
In the reef hobby, there has never been any concerted attempt to quantify that would constitute 'good' water quality as far as I can tell.
Is this a pipe dream? Unachievable?
Or do you think we might be able to come up with a system to categorize tank water quality, and compare things in a meaningful way?
I'm looking forward to your reply.
Regards.
Mike Kirda
