Testing Equipment

[smd747]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could recommend some testing items. I use API tester for ammonia and one of those 6in 1 strips for nitirites, PH, Alkalinity. Is there something better to use? What do most of you use?


Thanks

Get the chemical test kits for the rest of your water quality parameters.

the test strips are not very good when useing it for a reef tank. I have been testing alot of diff. test kits and have come up with these as good ones so far.

salifert
API
IO

Salifert will be more accurate as they read down to the tenth but otherwise the rest are close in scale

I have used API, Salifert and Sera. All have been very good. I wouldn't think the 6-in-1 is a good idea. Get seperate tests. for what it's worth, a ph-pen is pretty cheap and easy (@40?)
