Thks ... think I need to buy a liquid tester, like the API master kit ... just stumpled on (google) a digital tester - "FF Fresh Water Disk (Order Code 4351-H)". Has anyone tried this or similar?

Im just abt to start up a tropical fresh water tank (Juwel Vision 260) - have not had a tank since I was a kid - and back then I only measured ph values ... so need some advice abt what measuring scheme/equipment to use. Planning for a planted tank - and plan to start out with the internal...
