I did not know that (can't add 80% initially). Hmm. I'll check that. Thx.Salifert for me. Color change is sudden and profound. Only "complaint" is according to the instructions you can't add 80% of the expected amount of reagent like you can on the calcium kit.
What, no poll? I love the polls.
Salifert. Easy to read color change.
Only thing I don't care for with it is the drop syringe is sketchy and the powder seems a little sketchy too but the test overall is easy and works.

Interesting (and perhaps problematic) that so many people think the Red Sea is the easiest when it also seems to give a lot of people inaccurate (false high) readings.
If you get a value close to 1600 ppm or higher the first time you try, don't necessarily believe it lol

That's weird. I did a Triton test recently and my Mg was 1531 with my Salifert registering 1425. Which one do you use Randy? I'm not married to my Salifert if there's something better and this info and my Triton tests are worrisome to me.
FYI, the powder reagent amount is not critical in a magnesium or calcium (or alkalinity) test kit. It is typically present in excess .
The critical measurements are the tank water volume and the titrant volume added.
