Yes they say for fresh and salt water. But I only get good results using on my fresh water tank. I won't use API for salt water.It says it’s a saltwater test kit but oh well
Anyhow thank you guys for the answers been banging my head against the wall trying to figure this out. What is a good test kit for saltwater is the Reed Sea kits good as I have one of those as well?It says it’s a saltwater test kit but oh well
Hannah testers are decent. I use them for everything except ammonia, nitrite calcium and magnesium. You can usually buy them used off the selling forum. The reagents aren’t too expensive after the initial cost of the testers. I’ve also found some tests recently at my LFS that I really like, maybe you can find them somewhere or online. I really like the NYOS test kitsAnyhow thank you guys for the answers been banging my head against the wall trying to figure this out.

To actually answer the questions:Ok so my tank is over 3 months old and I have a red squirrel fish and an angel coral beauty fish along with some inverts and one hermit crab. I have no corals and live rocks with 80 lbs of live sand and no matter what my ammonia won’t drop below .25 ppm on my api master saltwater test kit but on my seachem alert test it shows there is <0.02 which is safe what can be the cause I change the water and feed sparingly see picture. I am at a complete loss as my nitrites stay at 0 all the time and my nitrates have hit 40 ppm before but after water changes it always goes down.
