Its fine for a beginner for the most part but its inaccurate in comparison to other brands like the salifert and red sea i use salifert personally.. And the reason they are inaccurate is because its not a titration test kit so you don't know the exact level of nutrients.

Yeah both Salifert and Red Sea have those test kits but they're usually sold individually not as a set.. however i think red sea does have a bundle... for corals you want calcium, alkalinity, magnesium... and later on you can upgrade your current test kits..
Brs has a good deal on Red Sea bundles. The foundation kit is what you would need for corals.

Nitrate and phosphate are also good to keep an eye on. For po4 I use a Hanna checker.
