Which Master Test Kit?

[shemesh]

Hi. At the moment I use Test Strips for PH, GK, KH, NO2 and NO3, with a separate liquid test for amonia.

I'm looking to purchase a good Master Test Kit which will do everything I need without have to get separate kits. Is such a thing available, and where would be the best online shop (v expensive at my lfs!)?

Cheers!

My personal preference for consistancy and value for money is Aquarium Pharmaceuticals (API). You can buy a master test kit or just the individual ones you think you need

First you have Hagan (scroll to btm)

Then there's TetraTest Laborette,
again scroll down to btm for priceing.

The test strips are a not very accurate in my opinion. best using a proper kit.
For pH testing I would always recommend electronic equipment for quickness.
Small hand held varieties can be bought for a minimal outlay these days.

ouch - that hagen test kit is a pretty penny....The API one seems to work fine for me (18months and counting) and is £18 or so in petAtHome (or was last time I checked)

Thanks for the advice guys. Have ordered the API kit because it seems to do all I want at a decent price.

Cheers

In my opinion Hagen / Tetra is way over priced
