Does anyone here know of/use a digital water tester to cover all the usual aquarium needs? (pH, ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, hardness, etc)
If so, what brand/model? How do you like it?
I don't know about anyone else, but I really don't like the standard 'vial and dropper' tests. I never feel like I'm reading the right number, comparing colors on a chart to colored water in a tube. It looks different in one room than another, different times of day, different levels of light. I know consistency is key, but I'm also the kind of person who likes to get the same number no matter what room I'm in or if it's sunny or cloudy outside.
thanks all,
btw: i'm new to this site, and it is flipping awesome. it's been a real treat to see some of the aquarium journals and pictures of members setups. i've read a lot of books and thought i had seen quite a few things. you guys have totally blown me away with some beautiful fish pictures and aquariums. thank you, thank you, thank you!
