So does this system if it indeed uses reduction of NO3- to NO2- in the presence of Cd. And if nitrite levels in a tank will be high enough to interfere with nitrate testing accuracy most of inhabitants would be simply dead as nitrite is toxic to fish and should be at virtually 0 ppm in any established tank.
