I'd second that...the API is a good kit. The only extras you may want to consider is a KH/GH kit for ~ $6.00.

alright guys, ill get a test kit like that. now i need to know about prices... i want something that is good, but isnt a lot of money.

www.bigalsonline.com/ you can get the API Master test kit for 15 dollars along with some other goodies you may need to stock up on. Yes there is shipping but if you get a few things then the savings will by far surpass the shipping costs. And also I have seen the test kits as high as 30-40 dollars at retail stores.
