 Topic: Hanna checkers? (Water testers)

Has anyone used the Hanna Ckeckers? If so what do you think of them? Are they worth buying? Are they as reliable as chemical water testers?

I have two, one for phosphates and one for alk. I've enjoyed both and they seem to be accurate compared to the Red Sea test kits.

The phosphate one is the only hobbyist level kit I know of worth buying. The Red Sea, Salifert, API, etc aren't worth using IMO.

I have been using the alkalinity and phosphorus Hanna Checkers for a while and have been really pleased with their performance. I have yet to use the calcium colorimeter as I have read that it isn't very accurate compared to a Salifert Ca test, but there are infinite opinions out there...

I don't understand what you're asking, Mark.
