Red Sea Reef Foundation Pro Test Kit - Accurate Calcium, Alkalinity & Magnesium Testing for Saltwater Aquariums - 75 Tests, Easy-to-Use

RED SEA very good product. At first a little reading and understanding as their use. NO is very easy ... you need patience and understanding. For l amount of criticism I've read: many people do not know how to use or simply not read the instructions. Already today: after almost five reading TEST of each: excellent and very good .. I checked with other TEST (API SEACHEM) and are very even. The material is very good briefcase; Sturdy appropriate, arrived quickly, very good price relationship. It is a very good product for REEF aquarium. If you are a keen aquarist should have the equipment on hand. I have NO complaints

I like the design of this kit. I've been using salifert which has been consistent but when I dosed my alkalinity with the red sea I noticed it was .5 Lower than the salifert. I tested 3 times with the red sea and each time was 8.4. I think the red sea is probably more accurate. Although the salifefrt may be off a little it's still consistent and with saltwater consistency is the key. I like both test kits but I think I prefer the red sea.

Red Sea has done a great job of packaging a test kit where you feel the product equals the cost. Let me explain. 1. The case is nice hard plastic 2. The titrator makes testing easy 3. Color coordination delineates between each test and reduces the likelihood of cross contamination. 4. Test equipment like containers are glass. Red Sea also has made testing clear and easy to complete. There are several utube videos that provide consise instruction along with manual and visual cards that make anyone comfortable using this test kit. Some advice for new users. 1. Clean clean clean you syringes and test containers with RO water( no soap) each and everytime you put away your kit and between each test. 2. Take your time and read instructions and watch videos until you have some confidence you know what you are doing. 3. Rinse each container in the salt water you are testing when you are ready to test. 4. Most IMPORTANT, take your time and measure each full drop. You dont want to push through too quickly and miss your color change. I recommend without reservation this test kit. Yes it is higher priced but for the difference you will be wishing you brought this kit first because you know you will trying to save money. The Titrator on its own makes testing that much easier.

Quality is great. Good value for your money. Both size and color including water quality is as described.

Ive read the reviews for people saying this is a complicated to use kit. I would have to disagree when compared to other kits. There are some that are easier but they arent as accurate. The Mg test can be a little tedious however, once in line it only needs to be checked on a biweekly to monthly basis (i do monthly). The Ca and Alk are both easy and quick to perform. I checked the Alk test against my Hanna and it read within .1 dKh difference. I would assume it is accurate. I also use a calculator to determine how much Calcium I needed to raise my aquarium to the correct levels. I tested before and a few hours after adding my 2 part and the amount I added brought calcuim to the exact target I was shooting for. The CA test seem to be accurate. I will be at some point ordering the Hanna Calcium test to do a comparison and I will update this review when I do so. I am very happy with the kit and I really like the little extras that come with it. I really like the titrator extension and how easy it makes it to add the titration mixture of the test fluid.

Turns out that the KH is not very reliable, but this is a non-returnable item, even if unopened. I’ve never had an issue with returns, which is why I had felt secure buying items on Amazon. So now I’m stuck with expensive garbage.

Need to be a junior chemist to use in a weird, but hard way only way for you to tell is try. Testing takes forever at first, and honestly I'm not looking forward to the next time I use the kit. It's extremely expensive very through. I'm not sure how accurate when i was doing it.

Fairly easy to use even though its a bit time consuming to do the tests. Does produce repeatable results so seems to be accurate.

Brilliant

Like expansive but works well and gives you a great idea of what you made need to dose

Excelente!
