Water Test Kits......

Just had a quick search and saw some tetra 6 in 1 test strips..... My link

Any good? or waste of money?

Oh and im on a bit of a budget.....

test strips are very inaccurate try and get a liquid based kit like the API master kit. it can be bought from ebay for about £17 and tests ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, high pH, low pH and will last for ages. there are other test kits available but this seems to be a popular one on here.

 

[ben3486]

that seems a quite reasonable price....esp if its accurate and test every thing i need to test

If you're in the UK get the Salifert test kits, they're the same price as the API's, but are more accurate, they're available from charter aquatics, and you will need ammonia, nitrite and PH.

i use the api master test kit and its a very good, easy to use kit. i would definatly recommend it!

For the saliferts, go to charter house aquatics.
