but my question would be the following: Is there not a lab here in the U.S. that could perform the same test they do over in Germany, to cut costs? Is the testing method/equipment something that's proprietary for Triton? If the premise is to test all these water based elements, and then to replenish what isn't there with what I can assume aren't proprietary elements... I'm surprised there isn't already a non-reef affiliated lab out there that could do the same.
There are labs in the US that run these sorts of tests, and have for many years. They are definitely not inexpensive.
Check ENC Labs - Chemical Analysis and Consulting for example.
