| Mario, i hope it goes well with your new test kit. I HAVE IT, i used it like 2 years ago and the only test that i use from it is the alkalinity, and i still have my doubts. You can be very succesfull with this kit, but its definitely not my fav. I would do the test 4 times, and all of the times i would get diferent colors and numbers. Once again i hope they have improved, and wish you the best with that kit. _________ *Since 12/2002 40 gal. 85 lbs live rock. 3" fiji Live sand.wet dry filter and prizm protein skimmer. 192 power compacts

Dont be to hard on yourself, we've all been there, hey i bought a prizm skimmer. Besides they may have improved it in the last couple of years.

| The Case is awesome, and the test did work for me for some time(problably just like 4 months), You can use it, but its not too accurate. Lets see, maybe they improved it. I did the same thing with my case as malcom, cut out some of the foam to fit my tests!
Edit** I also bought a prizm skimmer, wich is still working, but it just removes half a cup of gunk a year!!HEHE
