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.

The case is nice, i cut out some of the foam inside so i still use it to store my test kits (salifert, seachem, elos)

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
