Get the Nyos. It’s 2min longer than the Salifert, but tests up to 160 and is way easier to read IMHO. I also have the Red Sea, but I’m not a fan of the 9min test time or the fact that it only goes up to 50.I use Nyos No3 simple and easy to read

I use the RedSea Multitestkit too but I would love to pay some brand for some kind of Neptune System on Steroids where it'll give you active water parameters all the time with probes and stuff in the sump. I was talking to my LFS guy and he said the only parameter you can't really actively test with probes is phosphorus.Get the Nyos.

Yeah, I'd be super stoked with this as well. Right now phosphates and nitrates would be the "must have" parameters. A redesigned and expanded Trident with additional reagents would be slick (maybe test for trace elements as the 3rd reagent).I use the RedSea Multitestkit too but I would love to pay some brand for some kind of Neptune System on Steroids where it'll give you active water parameters all the time with probes and stuff in the sump.

I also got some Toxic GSP frags today x)
It would be cool to see what kit gives the aquarist the most accurate parameter checks, I think some have their pro's and cons or slight differences.How can we choose a good tester without a tank water sample and two or three kits showing a reading off the sample, benchmarked against whatever the chemists feel is the most accurate reader we have access to?
of all stated params the nitrate is the most varying among the few nitrate comparison posts, am talking huge disparity between basic kits like Red Sea and api nitrate and salifert on some of the comparison posts for nitrate
I want to know which kits align on readings with whatever today’s best digital or most expensive kit/accepted as best by chemists
Just got mine in mail todayJust got notice that the new hanna high range nitrate checker just shipped(thanks @MarineDepot !). Curious to see how it works out with just the one reagent pack.
I typically run in the 10 to 12 range so it's perfect(if it works well?) for guys wo run higher nutrient tanks. Should be quite a bit easier to use then diluting the LR kit(I could never get a consistent reading doing it that way).
No I didn’t not sure they will even care but maybe I willOh I hope you sent Hanna a picture of that.
Should I test it with or without the fly in there((FORDTECH)), please give us you're thought's on the Hanna HR.
I'm tired of trying to read shades of pink/purple. I'm using the Tropic Marin nitrate kit.
