Hi Caz, The place I normally test is silting up, by about 100-150mm. There is a branch across the stream against the ford, this might slow the flow and cause sedimentation. I may go back and remove it. Also, there are cattle in that paddock where there is usually nothing or 1-2 horses. The turbidity has risen from <10 to =10. The pH strips again gave odd readings. The 4-7 pH range strip measured the water at about 5. The 0-14 pH range strip measured between 6 and 7, closer to 7. I left them in for over 10 minutes.
