So, I want to test my water on a more regular basis, right now i just have the API reef master test kit and the freshwater kit, so i use liquid to test everything but sometimes it just doesnt seem so accurate.
I would like to go digital and have seen that the Hanna checkers are like $50 each, my question is...is this worth it? Are they reliable long term without replacing? I know that some of the ph meters burn up over time so im wondering if the Hanna checkers do too.
My thinking was to get a calcium and KH Hanna checker because the way these liquid kits work it makes it kinda hard to check those 2 things since you have to keep dumping in drops until the color changes.
I'm on a limited budget, are there other options out there that will work but maybe cost a little less?
thanks for the feedback!
