Simple kits that are easy to use

I have been in this hobby for many years and still prefer these kits over the newer kits that require more steps or wait for the reagents to react. Easily detectable color changes and simple inspection procedures.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Minor issues

Don't fumble like me

I thought Hanna Checkers were the best tests available and I was wrong. Hanna checkers were wrong 70% of the time, while they were always right. I lost a lot of coral because of this.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Almost never

Bad results - aquarium test kits

Didn't work this test, it hasn't shown my water so far, went back to RedSea, test much better. I used Salifert many years ago and had no problems, something went wrong, waste of money.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Something else

Workshop recommended

My monthly repair company recommended these products for their accuracy. This is the product he uses for his client. I personally found the product easy to use. I rely on experts for their comments on product accuracy.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • I'll write later

Inaccurate on aquarium test kits

worth the money. There were no instructions, obviously they sent me a returned item. To update. Somehow not exactly. Check how much I'm dosing every day, my levels were EVERYTHING. I don't dose and apparently my calcium and kh were a lot higher than the day before. I read guides and watch videos. Nothing helps.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • so-so

I like it! for aquarium test kits

I like these Salifert test kits. The results appear to be relatively accurate and they all work in the same way. I use them in the same order each time; Mag first, then Alk, then Calc to make the steps easy to remember. I think they are much more reliable than the cheaper tube test kits which require different steps for each test. These are just easier.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Crumpled

Reliable and very accurate

These are very accurate test kits but several steps are required to get a reading. My only complaint is that the plastic syringe markers rub off as others have said so you have to be very careful not to touch the numbers. So if you're willing to take the time to prepare your tests and have the spare syringes you have, I highly recommend this test kit.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Reliability

Great test sets! Suitable for fish and aquatic animals

These are by far the best test kits. They are extremely accurate and all syringes are accurate. The only reason I give it 4 stars is because there is a step where you draw up the reagent and there is always an air bubble that changes size. The instructions say the air bubble is normal, but its size fluctuates, so it doesn't make sense. Some YouTubers say it must be a certain size, but it's difficult to control the size of the air bubble.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
