What kind of tester kit for a new tank

[buckshott]

What kind of tester kit do I buy for my kit. I am picking up a tank 5 hours away and transporting the tank and all of the old water as well as some new water I have prepared. What kind of kit to test the alk., nitrate, etc. Please Help!!!!! Thank you.

I use the Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Master Test Kit. It seems to work pretty well.

Where do I get this?

Salifert is suppose to be the best but it costs around $100 for the complete kit. I use Hagen Master Kit tests 10 things "VERY" good instructions and cost me $60 "including shipping"

Is there an on-line store for this?

Please note that links to competitors are not allowed on SWF, out of respect to the owner and operator of this board BTW, SWF sells some very good quality test kits.
