Testing Is Key
Once you've started a new aquarium, the only way to keep it in perfect balance is with routine water testing. API gives you all the tools you need to create a nurturing environment for both fish and live plants. Their comprehensive Master Test Kits are tailored to freshwater, saltwater or reef environments, and individual tests for things like pH, ammonia or nitrites leave nothing up to chance.
Clearing the Water
API offers reliable three-step filtration for tanks of all sizes with their FILSTAR XP Canister filters and wide variety of filter media. These powerful filters constantly circulate the water, trapping organic waste and odors, removing harmful ammonia and contaminants, and helping good bacteria to thrive in the tank.

Feeding your aquarium inhabitants, whether they're tropical fish, turtles or newts, is something that can be tricky without the right food. API developed a special diet for every type of fish—one that's highly palatable, which leads to less waste in the tank. And that means less ammonia to cloud the water.

Product isn't the worst thing you could buy, it's good for testing in a pinch. I wouldn't use this as your standard everyday testing kit, it's much more of a emergency type thing.

The colors are very difficult to distinguish from the chart, and I am getting very different results as compared to my api master test kit. I would not feel comfortable using these strips as my main test kit.

I purchased this product to check accuracy for spot checking my aquariums rather than doing drop tests all the time. I found gh and kh extremely hard to read. The ph was way off. I tested the tank first with the standard drop tests. I keep 20+ aquariums and as they "multiplied" testing became more arduous.

API is a wonderful aquatic company. Many products to choose from. Explanations made simple. I just don't understand why Chewy's would charge for shipping on such an inexpensive product.
