From an old Salifert test kit? I typically keep the spoons and syringes from test kits, as back ups. I do label them also, so I don't mix an old syringe from an Alk kit, with a Ca kit...

If you don't have an old kit, check with your LFS. If they use or sell Salifert, they're likely to have extra parts.

The little spoon for the Cal. kit is what I need, and unfortunately no stores in this area sell Salifert, always have to order from BRS.

You can order a new kit and use the spoon for your old one until that's used up. Would work as a last resort.

Of course that is always an option, but as many as i have lost i would love to order a dozen of them.

Got a digital scale? 1 level spoon of the Ca-1 weighs .25-.28 grams after a couple different weigh ins with my test.

Thanks for doing that man. I do have some scales, will just have to check it to see if it measures that low.

PITA to measure out and contain that little bit for each test....but effective as long as you don't lose any during the material transfers.

The scoopers are 0.05 mL (mine is marked) so you could at least google for that to try for some replacements.

And if your dog wants in on the test gear, maybe he should buy his own kits, eh?! Tell him I said so!

According to this puppy, everything in the house is hers.

I ended up just ordering another test kit. I figured i would need it soon enough anyways.
