Why do you think Salifert has discontinued potassium?

Habib said they just began to ship and should be in the US any day:

my lfs has told me that they are no longer able to get salifert potassium
but Randy this is more of a pole to see what the interest would be.

Sure, that's great.

I just wanted to correct the premise about the Salifert Potassium kit.

I said no reason mag I don't test a lot and the others I don't test at all.

I thought the alk test was the most reliable...no?

I have been using Ellos and salifert and even tried red sea but had enough problems with telling the colors apart to get. A positive results.

FWIW, a DIY alk test is cheaper, can be very accurate, and also has no color distinction if that appeals to you (and assuming you already have a pH meter).
