Time consumnig, but accurate by TOM PICKLES

Comments: I bought this mainly for the Magnesium testing ability, but Borate is handy for those of us with ozone generators. It's relatively time-consuming compared to normal titration tests, but VERY accurate. Results were compared with those given by laboratory-grade equipment where I work and the variance was too slight to be of significance. My comparisons were only done on Magnesium since Borate levels can change quickly as a function of time. Seachem also supplied all utensils required for the test, which was nice. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: this test kit is simply not worth the money. personally i beleive the testing for magnesium takes way to long and is very unaccurate. the same goes for the alk testing. you can barely see the color change cuz its so faint. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Don't waste your money by JUDY

Comments: The alkalinity reagent gave no color change at all so you can't calculate Alkalinity or Borate. The magnesium reads 250 ppm lower than both Red Sea and Salifert kits. The insert does not include a phone number for customer support. I would not recommend this product to my friends.
