I really like this kit. Its like many other Salifert kits which is good because once you get the technique down you just repeat it on the other kits. It easy to use and fast, which I like. It has a decent color change, it could be a little more vivid but you can tell when its changed color. It is also very reliable in my experience with the kits.

No counting of the drops and/or multiplying of any numbers. Very fast and easy to use.
|
| Didn't like |
The color change could be a little more clear.

like all salifert kits this one takes a little time to produce the result but the accuracy is supposed to be worth the effort. this kit has a few steps to it and i don't like the way you "measure" the dry reagent. you basically get a tiny plastic spoon to "measure" the amount of reagent #2. this seems a little random to me...i haven't tested this kit results vs another for accuracy as i have just started testing for this parameter, but i trust salifert so i'm sure it's as good as i am at measuring with my little spoon

complex but accurate
| General |
It takes time and effort to get good results. If you are going to use elevated mag you are going to need to use a precise test kit that is going to be more complicated that a dip paper or color matching style kits. |

Very accurate, not complicated to use
|
| Didn't like |
it takes a tedious amount of drops to get results. But the results when you get them are clear. Test tubes were a little cheap.

A must have for the serious reefer
| General |
Like all Saliferts tests this one is a little tedious but well worth the effort. They are a little more expensive than some other kits so I use the saliferts monthly and other cheaper tests for the weekly testing.
One issues I have had with all Saliferts tests is the metering syringe. If you fill it then empty it over and over you actually fill to a different line. As long as you use moderate speed while pulling back on the syringe it is consistant.
All in all a great test and well worth the time and money
I must have for all serious reefers! |

Extermely accurate
easy to read results
Close increments for the actual readings

Like all saliferts they are a little tedious.
The lines on the syringe seem to wear off before the kit is exhausted.
I would like to see a laminated mini reference card for the readings.

Accurate and reliable
| General |
Salifert test kits are one of the most reliable and trusted brand of test kits currently available. |
| Liked about it |
I've been using Salifert test kits for years and they are one of the few brands of test kits that I trust to provide accurate results every time.
|
| Didn't like |
They are higher cost than other brands, but that is the price you pay for having an accurate test kit.

good mag test kit
| General |
A good product, but the titration is a bit hard to see. It's worked well for me, but I would prefer something as clear as the calcium or alk test kits. |
