Salt water test compared to freshwater test.

Is there a big difference between the two test kits?I am asking because I was using a salt water test kit without knowing and once I bought a new freshwater test kit my numbers got alot better.

Yes, there is a difference. Not too long ago there was a similar thread regarding this, and I THINK there were certain tests that were the same, but the color readings were different.
