Which Ca test?

[Roberto CRC]

Hi everyone, I have to buy calcium test again, but I do not know what brand to buy.

I have used red sea, but I want to try other brands. I currently have Hanna but I feel very complicated and the result was never encouraging, always above the range which I do not think possible.

Which one do you use, which I recommend that is easy to use, easy to read and accurate.

Regards.

I'm really open to the options, what I'm looking for is an easy-to-use test and the result is accurate.

Salifert is cheap, easy, and as accurate as anything else out there.

I use Hanna. I'm happy with it. I used to use Salifert for calcium.

I do use Salifert for iodine, strontium and magnesium.

What part of the Hanna assay do you find complex?

Red Sea for Ca and Mg
Hanna for Alkalinity

I just switched from API to salifert for all my test kits. I find Salifert a lot more accurate then API as well as easier to use and read.

 

[JimWelsh]

Salifert, until sometime next year.

 

[WesleyC]

Red Sea for Ca and Mg
Hanna for Alkalinity

I use exactly that as well.
