I recorded .14 on Hanna phosphate but not sure if I believe it. When I do the manual test it’s between .03 and .1.

Still having issues with Hanna Phosphate checker
First sample read .18, resampled to a result of .10, which agreed with a Salivert test result

After more investigation I changed vials, and the Hanna checker now reads .09 which agrees with the salivert test result

I think my Hanna phosphate checker has failed, readings have steadily increased until today it read .40, I actually put a bag of chemi pure in a couple of days ago to control the phosphate level. I have a Salivert phosphate test and it tested at .1 which is more believable. There is no observable symptoms of high phosphate in the tank, no algae growth above normal levels, no extra glass cleaning, corals look normal. Not sure what to do

Coral beauty has a white lesion on his left eye, seems to be healthy, active eating etc
Added a Coral Beauty and 2 Banggai Cardinals ( I tried to pair them in the store, Pisces)
Fed a mix of brine and mysis shrimp. All 3 seemed to be eating, the Coral Beauty was spotting some out but at least he was interested
