Water Test Strips

[omega59]

Can someone tell me why the test strips are not good to use when testing water stats?

they are horribly innacurate and a poor product :bad:

I agree, for whatever reason they aren't as sensitive as liquid kits. You might get an Ammonia reading of 0 on the strips and a test with the liquid kit will show .25 or even .5.
