Well as some of you know i am in a country where not alot of people care about animals... fish in particular. So i have a couple questions:

I dont have access to great test kits here.

I actually bought my API while i was on vacation. Well i asked my dad to get me another one before he moved back and they didnt have API. The API cost me around 30 CANADIAN dollars. This test kit he just got me was 45. Not sure if thats good but its all i can get.
It is the NUTRAFIN Mini Master Test kit ( liquid). Just now i found out it doesnt come with a nitrate test, so i will buy that separately here( i can get them separately for a ridiculous high price). So my question is....
Is it any good?
Is it trustworthy?
Has anyone ever had experience with it?
please let me know.
Thank you!

I use Nutrafin and it hasn't let me wrong.
In my area they're actually cheaper then the API. lol
Anyway you must of one of the older kits. A month or two ago Nutrafin brought out a new kit (exact same but new box) that has the nitrate included.
Good Luck!

ill let you know what box it is... ive seen them. The old ones have a Clown fish and the new ones have angels... i think... well i will have to get the nitrate separatley if it doesnt have it. Does the dropper it comes with any good?

What do you mean by dropper?
I've never had any trouble with doseing the tests... the plastic pipette that comes with it works but make sure you measure by the white line and not the pipette

I have a wide range pH test kit from Nutrafin. I love the pippete. Individual Seachem tests also come with one. Tetra Laborett includes a handy green plastic syringe. No idea if Salifert test provides one (hope to find out soon).

ya i was confused about the pH. I used the Low range pH test( it comes with high and low) and i got 7.6... im curious to see what the high range will say lol

The test ranges are usually pretty close when they overlap... can't remember which I use...
