test kits

[Kickingfish]

I thought I saw something on here the other day about API test for Calcium was not accurate. Does anyone have information about this? Does anyone know of any other tests or kits that may have inaccurate results? Lastly, what test kit would you use for calcium or basically all your reef test?

The API tests for calcium, phosphate, hardness aren't very accurate. I use the Red Sea tests. They're a bit more expensive but are more accurate, and I like the titrator it comes with. Very easy to use. All the testing materials fit inside a nice plastic box that makes it easier to keep organized. I use Red Sea for all my stuff. Salifert is also a good brand.
