Salifert Strotium test w/ Calcium first part

[pipegarcia]

I recently buy the Salifert Strotium kit. This kit has the added benefit that the first part of the test evaluated the calcium concentration and then the Strotium concentration. I heard good things about the Strotium test but how about the reliability of the Calcium part of this test. Any experience? Any sugestion? Thanks

Personally, I don't recommend testing for or supplementing strontium, but the calcium part of that kit ought to be adequate for most purposes.
