That's cool, I've never even heard of that. That's a great idea.

IME the easiest and most accurate NO3 as well as PO4 test is using your eyes to closely monitor the colour/vitality/growth of your corals.

Hmmm, so it looks like the test kit does still exist:

Just none of the Canuck retailers I can think of seem to list it online though .. not sure what's up with that.
