Default Please recommend me a Nirate test kit

I find the Sera one too troublesome. any other brand which is good and more straight forward to use?

Try API, it's very strait forward.

I think API is easier, only 2 bottles and no powder reagent. But I always find the colour code a bit hard to read especially nitrate is low. Maybe I am colour blind

Actually if you maintain your wc regime, I feel that there is no need for nitrate test.

I have to agree with bro Frydaddy, I always have to try my best to see the damn colour result. But I'm slightly colour blind la, that I do not lie. Always wish there was a digital test for the water parameters.

If I am not wrong there is a few in the market, but those cost a few hundred a piece.

Really? Is there a limit to how many tests can be done? I wouldn't mind purchasing if its for long term convenience and usage. I believe many out there would consider purchasing as well.
