[m00ms]

hi all,
 
i am not new to tropical keeping as have been doing for about 5 years now but i have only ever tested my water at early stages of tank set up by my local lfs.
 
can i ask what test kits people use as i am going to get a kit but just wondering what kits others use.

API liquid master test kit. Costs like £30 roughly. More accurate than strips IMO.
Also have liquid tests for a variety of other measurements the kit doesn't include.

Most commonly used on here is the API master kit - around £20 ish from ebay or online fish shops.
