Guest jfuruno Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I need to get a test kit to test all the important water parameters. Nothing wrong in my tank, but I figure it's about time I pick something up. What do you use and what should I make sure I am abale to measure? Thanks!

Regular Member Kissy Posted September 4, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted September 4, 2005 I'd get the aquarium pharmaceuticals master kit. Its a little pricey, but you get so many more tests for the price, and it lasts you a long time. It is also very acurate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member fantailfan1 Posted September 5, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted September 5, 2005 I also have the AP Master Test Kit. It's easy to use. And as certain test reagents run out you can replace only that one, you don't have to replace the whole kit. Also--I got mine at vvvv. The price in the store was $24.99 but I printed off their web site page where the price is only $14.99 and they matched it in the store. Apparently they do that quite a bit. Happy testing!!

I haven't looked at my local pet stores to see what they have cuz I just got my master kit about 6 weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
