test kits ?

[bunsmonkey]

ok im real close to being ready to set up my tank, and i was wondering what test kits to buy? i know its best to have the best, but its also not always affordable. i was wanting to know if anyone has tryed the red sea marine lab kit, or the sea chem marine basic kit? i know salifert is good but all those test add up real fast. thanks for any and all opinions.

the seachem kits are good
no experience with the red sea

Last night I picked up the Red Sea Marine Lab for $21.99 + tax. I tried it out and I like it. Easy to use. Seems to be accurate. Also has quite a few tests.

I've used Red Sea and Salifert...I'd have to give the thumbs up to Salifert for sure.
