Elos


For your sake, stay away from Red Sea. I tested with theirs, every hour my Alk would supposedly drop 4dkh. When I tested it with Salifert, it was >14dhk. Total garbage, no matter what you're testing for with them.

I suppose I am I like the quality and durability of the glass vials, heavy gauge plastic file boxes, ability to order separate reagents, and the reliability of the results. Got mine online from PA
