test kits

So on one of my Facebook groups a guy mentioned he uses the API reagent in his Hanna nitrate HR checker. He was very vague and not helpful when I asked him follow up questions. Has anyone else done this with success? Getting 125 tests out of API for cheaper then 25 Hanna reagents seems like a...

If you own a stream deck or need a pretext to give the stream deck mobile app a try, you can try out my Hanna checker stream deck profile (attached zip file). I think the screenshot makes it self-explanatory, but let me know if you like the idea!

Something strange is happening with my Red Sea Calcium Test kit. When I drop in the powder, some of it turns to little stones. And I’m guessing it is messing up the result since some of the powder is not dissolving. I bought the kit new less than one year ago. I follow the directions precisely...

Hey Everyone! I wanted to get your take on test kits. I recently was fortunate to acquire a Mastertronic from BRS. I had a LFS help setup and calibrate the unit and it is using Red Sea pro solutions for Ca. It is currently reading at 561 and I think it is not quite calibrated correctly but...

Yesterday my nitrite was at zero while ammonia began to spike and now everything spiked even nitrates is this ok? what about phosphate is that ok?

Has anyone had any experience with the aquarium systems seatest test kits? any reviews/experiences? cant find anything on them, my LFS recommended them but im getting "odd" or just unexpected readings and dont know if i 100% trust them yet. Im using the ammonia, nitrite and nitrate test kits of...

So I just spent quite a bit on a 25 pack of 5-in-1 test strips. After having gotten home and using 2 already, I realized that the precision of the strips is sorely lacking, and that I could have gotten a 100 pack for a bit less than I paid for the 25 on Amazon. Of course, I had looked before I...

I'm just getting started and wondering if there are any recommendations for water testing equipment? I was eyeballing the Seneye Reef Aquarium Monitor, but am seeing a lot of mixed reviews. Hanna has a lot of individual digital testers. Is there something like the seneye with better reliability...

Anyone have their LFS tell them that their Alkalinity and Magnesium are low and should be dosed but your own test kits are telling you otherwise? Both LFS and myself are using Salifert test kits and testing the same water sample. Alkalinity: LFS 7.85 Me 8.3 Magnesium: LFS 1290 Me 1500+

When the syringe reads 0.3ml on the Alk Test kit from Red Sea what is the value? I get confused when reading it backwards if anyone can help that would be great thanks a bunch. Maybe a photo with some pointers on it also to help others out if they need to learn to read it also.

How come I test calcium using API and get 390 and then when i tested calcium with Hanna Tester it says 550? I’ve read the manual a million times and watched videos on how to use the Hannah tester so I’m confident I’m using it correctly. Any help/ideas?

Hi R2R Community! My FIRST POLL! Some quick background: I’m a numbers and data guy so I love it when people post polls and give feedback. I can’t tell you how many purchases in this hobby because of that. This morning while testing nitrates I was having trouble finding the right color to match...

So I have been using a API nitrate test since I first started my tank, it has seemed pretty reliable but it has just run out so I thought id try the red sea pro test, bought the kit with phosphate aswell. The issue I'm having is that the API test was saying my nitrates are at 10 but I've just...

Hi everyone, I'm sure this has been answered numerous times but I can't find a comparison thread with these 2 specific tests. Hanna is out of my price range before you ask ;) I see that a lot of people get zero readings on their Salifert kits, hopefully that means their actual levels are close...
