i dropped 3/4 glass tubes from my API test kit. The kit still is fairly new. is there anywhere i can get replacement tubes for this instead of buying a whole new kit?

A lab supply shop might carry something suitable, but the cost is going to be higher than just buying the new test kits and using all the reagents. I don't know how long the API test kits last, though.

Bigalsonline.com sells replacement test tubes for hagen/nutrafin kits. The tubes only have a 5 ml line so if your test kits require varying levels of water sample these may not work for you.

Run a search for "test tubes" on the site.
