I have the Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Inc. Freshwater Master Test Kit and am very happy with it as a beginning kit. It tests for PH, Ammonia, KH, GH, and Nitrite. While we are on the subject From some of the plant folks I am looking for recommendations for a Iron Test Kit. I have several catalogues and of course the web sights but the test kits vary from $13 to $50 plus. |
