hi guys...

just thinking about water test kits...
does anyone know if theres an electronic/digital version?
that will test everything...
ph, ammonia, nitrates etc?

annnnnd if so...
whats the brand?

i was google-ing it before...
not much help really.
maybe i was searching for the wrong thing?

I searched for digital water test aquarium and quite a lot came up.
Most test are separate divices, though.

I like the liquid test sets.
It makes me feel like not all time studying chemistry at school was a total loss.
Mind you not all tests will be needed continually.
I never measure ammonia, pH and nitrites anymore for i know the levels are steady.
I tested weekly when i started with my tanks and kept adding to the bioload to see how far i could go.
I never got any ammonia and nitrite readings even with a totally overstocked tank.

I suppose if you have got the money then one of these electronic testers is quite a good idea, especially for people who have very little knowledge of water chemistry, and how to carry out liquid test. Do they only do pH and oxygen? I would imagine that ammonia, nitrates and nitrate testers would be a little more complex in design.

They have those too, but they are all seperate divices.
I think dragonezz wanted something like that.
Nice idea though, i bet it's easy testing if you just have to probe the water.

I found this as well, i ammonia alert for koi ponds from Seachem.
That should work on your tank too.lol

Personally, I like the feeling of being a "mad scientist" by manually testing the water - it's something about all those little bottles and viles - LOL

Drs Foster & Smith has digital Nitrate and PH; among others for marine tanks.

well i cant seem to find an all in one machine...
so it looks like im going to be "mad scientist hanna" from now on
hehehehehe

I looked for these as well but most that I found could only be used with saltwater...also they are expensive as hell...couple hundred bucks a piece!!!

Found cheaper ones for pH/Temp. but that was it. Haven't been able to find and ammonia, nitrite, or nitrate tester for freshwater.

I'll admit it would be nice
