5.0 out of 5 stars An Efficient Status-Check for Your Aquarium , July 9, 2008

By	S. Tate (Houston, TX USA) - See all my reviews

EasyStrips are a quick way to assess the status of your tank. The color pads indicate the level of your nitrites, nitrates, pH, alkalinity, and water hardness. While master kits will provide you with more definitive information (a numeric value for each level), the approximate value that these strips provide let you know what you need - that is, whether your aquarium is safe, and if not, what the problem is. I have compared the results of these strips to master kits. In my experience, they are reliable. There is not the bother of bottles and test tubes, and you will have results in less than a minute!

4.0 out of 5 stars Simple to use, October 20, 2008

By	M. Lind (colorado) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

These strips are very simple to use and I believe pretty accurate. Was very happy to have these after a heavy rain storm that caused my PH to crash in my Koi pond. It was good to know quickly and make a partial water change fast. So much faster and easier than the test tubes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not accurate, August 19, 2009

By	S. Ong "mutiny" (Queens, New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A couple of my fish (koi) died because these strips have been telling me my water perimeter was good. Of course I don't blame these strips for killing my fish but had it told me the truth, I could have done something to save them. the only reason I found out these weren't accurate was when I started noticing that strip after strip, despite the water looking very different each time, it told me the same thing! When I went out to get a proper kit, it told me different!!! I would get into details how I found it inaccurate but I'd rather skip that and just tell you to look elsewhere.

Do yourself and your fish a huge favor and buy a proper kit.
