Test for color blind people?

[Munch]

Hi all,

I have been color blind all my life and have had problems with colors used on ph tests etc,

I was just wondering if anyone knows where i could get a digital tester (if they exist)

Thanx very much
Chris

Haven't seen any digital testers for anything other than pH
Can you determine different shades of colour even though you can't tell what colour it is? The only reason i ask is that different manafacturers have different result charts, maybe there's one that you can tell the difference between shades of the same colour?

My Ammonia kit for example goes from yellow (= 0ppm) to very dark green (= 8ppm) and the difference between the shades of green is very distinct (i got it because i get annoyed with shades of yellow to orange - too hard to read)

Amen to that.

Thankfully, ladyMinion has excellent colour vision.

u can get digital testers for ammonia nitrates nitrites ph etc but they are very expensive.

got to a lab and c if they can order in a water tester that u can hook up to ur pc. it should be a thing u sitck in ur water and ur computer does the work. not sure how much thay cost but worth a try.

Interesting idea.

Hi, here is a link for eletronic Ph meters http/www.aquatics-online.co.uk/listsecti...tp=122&rets=182 or if you want to really go automated here is a link for IKS aquarium computers...maybe a little overkill, but what the heck... http/www.paraquatics.co.uk/iks1.htm

Hope this helps!

The IKS AQUASTAR that SarahBravo mentioned only does:

pH
redox potential
conductivity
temperature
water level
oxygen
air pressure

I was looking for something that did:

pH
Amonia
Nitrate
Nitrite

If it did what i wanted it to do and any sites had a price i would probably go for it but other wise it looks like thats a no no
