Okay......Got my water tester and after tsting my newt tank all the reading were in the 4 level (green).....my turtle tanks on th eother hand read 0 - .25 on all test.

Can I use my turtle water to set up my newts?

Thanks You

what parameters were you checking for and what test kit?

Hi, thanks for responding.....

I am using a kit called Freshwater Master Test Kit....it tests for pH (6.0 to 7.6), High Range pH (7.4 to 8.8), Nitrite, Nitrate and Ammonia. I tested all of them, except the high range pH.

My turtle tanks have been set up and running for over a year with no problems....I just want the newts in healthier water (water more suited to them) and ths was an idea i had, just not sure if it was safe.

Again thank you for the reply.
