what test kits do you use?

Post by blennieluvr on Thu Feb 11, 2010 4:16 pm

I use API and Salifert test kits. I need to restock and am wondering what most here use. I know for a while there were issues with Salifert but, I still tend to want to buy those and how you've liked them. In case it matters, I'm looking for calcium and magnesium.

Mine are all API. I do think I should try Salifert but I hear they are more difficult. the API ones are just SO simple...

API for my calcium it is a little tricky, and everytime I measure I get the results my calcium is 460-480. I don't know if I am doing something wrong, a bad test kit, or I have consistent amazingly high store bought RO water.

Good luck and keep us posted
