Excellent water test kit comparable to the high end manufacturers. Precise and efficient. Tested using two different kits for accuracy. Easy to use, instructions are simple (if followed). Suggested e-book is a plus. The product is affordable and the quality of the product is sound. I would recommend this product.

I am setting up a new aquarium and decided on these test strips to help me get my water to the parameters I’m going for prior to adding plants, and then eventually shrimp/fish. Buuuuttt I digress… I tested my water, and it tested at the lowest pH, so I bought API’s pH Up and treated multiple times over several days due to consistently low pH readings. After the third treatment I decided to buck up and buy API’s Master Test kit and voila, I’m sitting around the 7.6-7.8 range today (see photos), and then tested with the strips again and the pH is still reading at 6.2. These tests were done at the same time using the same water.DO NOT USE THESE STRIPS AS A REFERENCE TO DOSE YOUR AQUARIUM!!!

Easy to use and read. A great test strip that anyone can use and seems to be quite accurate.

It is so simple to use these test strips. After using a kit with an assortment of bottles and vials -- each one requiring a different amount of time -- testing everything in one shot is amazing. As for accuracy, the readings match what I would usually find for my tank and local water conditions.

This worked great for testing my salt water tank over the couple month starting process. It couldn't have worked better.I would recommend this to others.

ITEM: quarium Test Kit with eBook-100 StripsCOMMENTS: I used these for a 10gal planted betta tank and compared to my usual testing results.PROS:- The strips develop pretty quickly, so you can get a quick rough idea of your tank’s parameters.- I do like that they include 100 strips, nice quantity for routine quick checks.- They seem comparable to the name brands of the same product; I didn’t have any on hand to directly compare to, but the experience was the same.NEUTRALS:- I don’t like that there were no instructions listed on the bottle and are only available through the e-book. It just seems silly to not include this information since it’s so little information to add.- Some of the strips were initially different colors, but they still provided the same end result when tested.- The strips will over process fairly quickly, so you’ll want to have your timing down. I would compare to a more accurate test kit to nail down what works for your tank specifically as I feel it could vary (but unfortunately I only have one tank at the moment to test with - may update with a comparison test using our well water).CONS:- These definitely aren’t exact or perfect in terms of readings. It came out lower than my other testing for nitrates, which is pretty critical, and other mild variations (but none as significant as the nitrates). That said, I still find them suitable for quick checks or daily general monitoring, but just know that precision isn’t what you’ll get here.GIFTABILITY: (All of my packages are sent with Prime Delivery Day and manufacturer’s packaging preference selected. This may impact how things are shipped and cause my packaging experience to differ from yours.) It was sent in Amazon shipping packaging with no additional packaging other than the plastic bottle, which was generically branded. I would recommend gift wrap.WOULD I PURCHASE? (Any prices noted are as of the time of writing): Yes, because I like the convenience here. At $10.99 you get more strips for less than many other offerings available online and in-store.My rating system is: 5 = no/minimal complaints, very pleased 4 = minor complaints, overall satisfied, but could be better 3 = notable complaints, overall average to ‘meh’ 2 = significant complaints, unhappy and will not keep/use 1 = entirely complaints, misleading descriptions, straight to the trash product.
