Best Alk Test Kit
 
I am thinking of adding some calcium addition to the tank but want to know what I have and what I'm putting in.

What brands are the best? Is there a clear winner for Alk Tests?

Salifert.

rumour has it salifert makes a good one. I've used Seachem and been happy with the results though. Never tried the salifert kit

It seems pretty clear and cut which people think are the best. I'm just wondering why? What makes them better than the rest? Are they a stick that you dip or solutions? Just wondering :smile:

Walter, they're very accurate, have a high consistency and very easy to tell the end point of the titration.

So it's not like the Hagen ones where you are not quite sure what shade of pink it is? :lol:
