You missed the most popular test kit ever.... 'LFS'

Seriously, Salifert and Hanna are my fav.

I've heard the margins on Elos are crap, so dealers prefer to sell Salifert, and for the most part, aside from us elitists (lol), Salifert is good enough.

Found a 2012 test kit review that compares API, Red Sea, Salifert, Instant
Ocean, Seachem, Sera, etc. for overall accuracy, repeatability and even
"usability" (see comments). Very interesting information, in my view:
