No, sorry. You read to far into it, or misread it, or I miswrote it.
I wasn't implying that the Salifert kit has a colour chart.
I was implying that, unlike
other Hagen kits, the Hagen Alk kit
doesn't.
If it did, then yes, I would go with something else.
As it is, I'm happy with the readings the Hagen kit gives me because it's basically a simple count of the drops. Again, if it wasn't that, I'd go with something else.
Maybe it isn't bang on accurate, but I'm confident that the readings are within an acceptable range. Thus, I think I do have an idea where my alk is at.
It's basically a cost saving measure, personally.
Running three, (soon to be four again) tanks, gets pricey and I like to save some cash were I can.
If your saying that the Hagen Alk kits are waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy off then I'll take that into consideration.
Cheers,
