I heard about this a few weeks back it look like its a reality. A computer that will check your waters prams.
allows you testing for the pH level, nitrates (NO3-), nitrites (NO2-), phosphate (PO43-) and ammonium (NH4+).
AquaSpec aquarium testing computer a high-tech approach to testing water parameters

Now they are also working cal alk and mag also. This maybe true too.

Wow, I was wondering when something like this was going to be released. It is only a matter of time and money I guess.

So the real question is when does it hit the market, and what os the protocol for the reagents....and how much re the reagents?

Dowtish · May 4, 2012

I have know n about this for a while now, because somebody posted this in a sticky on another forum. He worked in a lab at a public aquarium and offered info on a digital titrator and the reagents that you will actually need. I would love to get one of these one day.

Copy and paste from thread:
www.hach.com will sell you a digital titrator (1690001) for $125. It will last you a lifetime. Or you can buy a really nice one on Ebay right now for $50. Do a search for digital titrator. They will sell you 100 powder pillows for ALK (94399) and Cal (94799) for less than $14 per pack. You can buy the titration cartridge for Alk (1438801) and CAL (1439901) for less than $15 each and a bottle of potassium hydroxide (28232H) for less than $10. I got a stir plate on Ebay for less than $50 (search "stir plate" on ebay, there's one on there now for $10). The key here is that you can be set up with professional equipment, doing digital testing, for about $200 and then refill supplies are far cheaper than buying test kits or test kit refills.
