What type of Test Kit/Strips do you use?

Hey everyone, just curious what kind of testing kits or strips people are using for their Salt water or reef aquarium.

If you could, post the type of kit, and what you use it with!

Thanks!

Currently using API. Looking to add a pH probe and Reefkeeper 2 for monitoring parameters/running everything. Also getting a few ELOS test kits.

Awesome Matt! I looked for that one but couldn't find it..
Just picked up an API test kit though! It was pretty amazing!

I use the reef master and FW master api kits. The fw api are the same just w/ different color charts than the sw.

I use API for ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and calcium. API's test for these seem pretty good. I don't like API's pH test kit. I was using test strips and found them to be more accurate for pH. I then confirmed this when my wife bought me a Hanna TDS/pH meter.

I also use Elos for phosphate. I'll probably move totally towards Elos as I've heard nothing but good things about them.
