Best Saltwater Test Kit?

[CherryBlossom]

What's the best test kit to get for your saltwater tanks?

I'm thinking about getting Hanna checkers for some things but is there a good master test kit out there for everything?

Let me know your suggestions!

Hanna for ALK and Phosphate for sure. Best and easiest.

Salifert for Calcium, Nitrate, and Mag

Red Sea for anything else.

I dont have alot of experiance with others but I have the line of redsea pro test kits. They seem to work well.

I use RedSea Pro for Alk, Ca and Mag. API for ammonia, nitrates, nitrites and high end PH.

Yeah hannah for alk and phos. Salifert for everything else. I wish hannah had a dang nitrate reader. i can never tell how bad my nitrate is! 2-10 looks the same to me!

Anyone else? Suggest any other test kits?

I use API for ammonia, nitrates and Kh. Red Sea for mg and ca. I have the alk from Red Sea but I find the API Kh test to be a lot easier to read. The Red Sea mg test is an ordeal to do, but it's an important number to know. Just my 0.02.

Well theres not one that does everything. But the red sea ones work well for me. Better then the salifate ones.

Now if moneys not an issue.

Hanna has lab grade testing equipment. They range from $260 to $220. Depending on which test.

That is a wish listem way down the road 4 me
