Re: Test kits
If you ever wonder when your kit may not be working, have your lfs test your water to see if your kit is accurate.
api is actually a pretty good kit for your basic 4, I think that the rest of your test kits should include salifert.

Re: Test kits
I would like to swich to salifert. It will be a little at a time. Most of my tests are api except ph, nitrate and nitrite. Which these 3 are the oldest of the tests.
