Testing API vs Salifert

[astar250]

What test kits are you using????????
I am now using API reef master ans saltwater kit. I just got a new magnesium ans strontium test and its by salifert. In the strontium it also tests for calcium. I my API reef test kit It has a calcium test. I did both test and there came to two different numbers the API reef test says its at 480 and the Salifert said its at 392. If it was closer this post would not be here. witch one is better and more accurate.

Thanks

I have found the API to be a broad range test and will not give detailed results. When I need accurate results I use seachem.

I test API vs seacheam, when I bought a new test kit, my results came out to be the same. It just may be that test kit a bad batch of solution.

I think im getting ready to buy new tests. For the numbers to be off that much it screws everything up with the Additives/Supplements.
Thanks
