Regular Member Slugger Posted May 9, 2005 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 9, 2005 Thanks for the reply Koko. I want to get one of these because I'm going through a pH/KH crisis right now, and have to do lots of these tests. Plus, I am never really sure I got the colours matched up.. Would be grateful for more input. Slugger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Slugger Posted May 14, 2005 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 14, 2005 Hi ThugLife, I still haven't bought one yet because they're quite expensive. A friend of mine bought one for about US$30, but I haven't been able to find a similarly priced one. The ones I have seen are over US$100. I'm using the liquid tests until I can find a cheap one.

Guest ryukinsarefun Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 hi Slugger and Thuglife, I had to invest in a PH meter a while back because I was sick of the test strips, drops etc;!!!! I got a great one from Rick at GoldfishConnection and I would be LOST without it. It cost $64.99 but I would have spent MORE than that on tests strips by now so it pays for itself in 3 months! The battery ( according to Rick) lasts 3 years. NO MORE GUESSING guys! Plus you can get an accurate read out of your tap water before you change your tank water. No big swings to worry about.
