Amazing, Sensitive and Accurate,

"As a newbie, when I made all my original purchases from the LFS, it was easy to sucker me in to buying the most expensive and 'recommended' items.
After a couple months I learned that there were easier and far less expensive test kits out on the market so I purchased them. I was simply amazed at how inaccurate or difficult they were to read for changes in color.
The Salifert tests have a truly dramatic color change effect. More importantly, the accuracy and the method used to obtain the specific result is great. Yes, all the tests in my experience have a more thorough process, but it's easy to perform the tests after a few times. More importantly, once you learn one Salifert test, you generally get the gist of the others.
These tests are expensive but I truly could not give a higher recommendation for anyone in the hobby. If you find you frequently have fluctuations are problems with you tank, switch to a Salifert test kit and see the difference.
I use the Magnesium, Calcium, Activated Carbon and Phosphorus kits - they are so incredibly accurate."
