Laughing I would buy the meter if it were a little cheaper. Who knows, in a few years they may release a cheaper version. I'd prefer and electronic 1, over normal test kits.

Hanna makes all sorts of photometers including the HI 83200-2008 multi-parameter one that tests Ca, Alk, Cu, pH, NO3, NO2, ammonia, O2, etc. You can get a good one for about $800US. That's just from a quickie search. I am sure it can be had for less with some research. The aquarium hobby actually had some input into this model, but the Ca is still measured low. The solutuon is to change the test volume, and they have instructions on how to do that.


What about magnesium and potassium, or is there a conversion to get the figures to our levels? Looks like a bloody good unit to own.

yeah, I forget what it's called, but there is a method to step up the tests.

Thanks for the review Adrian, I ordered one of these the other day and it should be here next week sometime.

They are really cheap on Ebay right now if anyone is interested:
