Magnesium is next in line I believe.
I have read the phosphate meter has some accuracy issues when used for reef testing. A nano-reef member uses the phosphorus meter instead and a mathematical formula to convert the reading to an accurate phosphate reading.

I have the ULR Phosphorus meter and find it very accurate. I did some experimenting around on it's accuracy. I diluted the water I was testing with P-free seawater and found it gave bang on results.
One thing about the alk-meter I just read is that they had reliability issues with the powder reagents and are replacing them with liquid: http://reefbuilders.com/2011/01/24/h...placed-liquid/ For alk, Ca and Mg, the ordinary test kits (i.e. Salifert) are accurate enough for my needs.

I believe they are now selling the liquid reagents to replace the powders.
