I use API as well. Never tried anything else. I like them because they are in expensive and easy to use

That's a good one to start with.
Like said above you still need MG for a reef.

Salifert is good but only measures up to about 1500. Which is fine if you don't way overshoot your magnesium. I like the Elos better cuz it can measure way up there.. And I've added too much more than once.
