Are you tired of spending a lot of time testing your water? Can't really be bothered shaking bottle #1 & #2 for a minute nor have time to wait for the solution to change colour after 5 minutes?


Are you a FIFO worker and worried about your fish even when you are away and your partner doesn't want to test the water because "It's too difficult"?

 

....we've got you covered!!

Say, does it do CO2? Looked like it was on list.

Yes, it checks how much CO2 is in the water as well. Something like a CO2 indicator ;)

 

Cost is $69 for the main box with the reading card

Definitely going to buy a bunch of these test kits, I've looked at aquarium and professional chemistry monitoring set ups in all price ranges and none give the range and specificity this set gives.  My preference would be a digital monitor per tank that lets you know when its sad but this give the easiest monitoring on the market.

Yeah, pretty keen to try these out. Cautiously optimistic after seeing a few reviews. Although I'd swap the no2 and cl2 for ammonia and phosphate this looks pretty interesting.

I think I'm having trouble keeping shadows off it - just got to find a good spot.

CO2 I got 35 and later 30ppm after it turned off so pretty pleased with that.

Edit - Mattia, is it just making sure no shadows on card or better in daylight? It's all good, just making sure I'm doing it correct.

Try to take the picture/reading under good lighting - best from above/on the side so the phone can read it properly :)

Thanks! Got it. Looking good.

Just wanted to say price when worked out per test strip is pretty good. Great value for money.

I have been using these for several months you wont find a faster more reliable all in one kit imo great to be able to back track over months of testing to see them all in a graph as well

thanks aquotix for making them so easily available
