Hello,
I was wondering if you guys could recommend a probe or meter which tests
the
water for the following:
- Nitrite
- Nitrate
- Ammonia
- PH
Any ideas? I hate these damn test kits!!!
Thanks for any help! I am in the UK.
I have never heard of a meter that will test for all of your requirements,
and doubt very much that you will find one. However, if you want a good
meter for pH/EC have a look he

The HI-98129 is the one I use almost daily at work. It is great, and very
accurate so long as you follow the instructions precisely, and are careful
with it. These sort of meters are sensitive instruments--treat them with
the care they deserve and you will be assured of accuracy AND longevity.
(My current 98129 is nearly two years old and works like new.) I find that
the majority of fish folks are quite negative about pH meters, and that for
the most part their comments indicate that they dont really understand how
to treat the instrument.
