I always use API liquid tests, and since the master kit does not include alkalinity I have overlooked it for a long time now. Using test strips to do quick testing I noticed that alkalinity again...its always 0. Shouldn't I have some to help with pH buffer? I still do not have a digital pH pen so I can not say what my swing range is, but with a heavy plant load the O2/CO2 levels probably swing night/day so the alkalinity would help control this?
