API Test Kits?

[Mister Chips]

Hi, I am a 4 month newbee around here. Reading all I can on the great website.

From reading around the forums I have noticed a bunch of high reviews on the API test kits. (Saltwater Master and Reef Master) However, I would think this covers all the testing I would need but I noticed that there is no Alkalinity test. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

I am a big fan of API for everything except PO₄

I'm not sure what is included in their combo kits, but I have to believe kH is one of them. kH is one of the measures of alkalinity.

API calls it Carbonate Hardness. It test alkalinity in dKH. HTH.
