2x for salifert. They're not as "simple" as the other test kit brands, but they're worth the effort, because they're supposed to be infinitely more reliable.
Also be sure to pick up a refractometer too. Best deal in SoFL that I've ever seen is reeflife, $39.99. You can't even get that from the online dealers.

Geez, all these hands up for Saliferts almost got me excited.
Then I realized how easy and accurate mine were. Sorry.
I'm sticking with ELOS.

No need to be be sorry but rather could you explain the reason why you think they are better, Are they titration technique as well? do they have less steps? are they cheaper? are they more accurate?
Could you post the intructions so we can see the steps say of the Calcium test kit?
