Works great once you get the hang of it By Alexandria on 4/19/13

I like that this comes in a nice sleek container. The Alk test is super easy to do. The Ca and Mg test take a little more time but being able to titrate so easy is nice. I like that it tells you how much each mL is to the end result so if you have super high values you can keep going with a refill of the syringe. You just have to calculate it.
I also like that the refills are not that expensive AND you get BRS points for purchasing them. It's nice to get something for purchasing your everyday products like this! Will continue to use and purchase from BRS!

I started off using API because they were cheaper and I thought that was all I needed. After a month or so I decided I wanted to check on my Magnesium levels. I went with the Red Sea test because of good reviews.
I love the way that you titrate the solution because you don't get messy like with the API. The color changes seem to be noticeable and watching the videos made by Red sea are a must just to double check the actual color you want to be seeing. The packaging of this test is also really nice. Compact and sleek 3 tests don't take up a lot of room under your tank! I will likely continue using the Red sea because you can get the reagents only and withe BRS you get nice regular bonus points for purchasing them!

Great Kit By christopher on 3/11/13

After using API for cycling purposes I purchased the Red Sea Pro Foundation kit. I am currently on my second kit since I used up most of the components of the first one and will continue using these kits. The results compare pretty close with the API kits but are more accurate. For example API measures CA and Alk by drops, you can not divide a drop by more than 1 so you get a larger range, RedSea uses mL where you can calculate per mL and get a smaller range.
The only test I hate performing is the Mag. It is not difficult or inaccurate, but is time consuming since you have to add each drop and swirl for 15seconds rather than adding all 5 at once. Not terrible and I prefer accuracy over ease of use.

Easy and substantial By David on 3/10/13

Easy to use and water resistant! Laminated cards and plastic case will hold up to numerous refills. Results corresponded to other kits I had, so I'm confident of the accuracy. The titrator, which allows for single hand mixing, might be awkward for small hands. Other than that, it's a great product and part of my weekly regimen.

Quality Test Kit By Joseph on 3/4/13
Joseph would recommend this product to a friend
This test kit comes wonderfully packaged with excellent instructions on how to administer them. The test themselves are very straightforward and accurate. I compared them to my api test kit. I really like the titration method compared to the api test kit which makes you unscrew, drop, shake, etc etc. My only problem with the test kit is the Kh test. I found the color change to be very subtle and hard to judge. The Ca and Mg were very distinct so i had no problems with those. I usually ended up using my api test kit for Kh. But for its value, packaging this kit is hard to beat.

High quality, really nice. By Devin on 3/2/13
Devin would recommend this product to a friend
The accuracy of this kit is awesome, as well as how you get everything you need in a nice plastic case. I will say you should really watch the YouTube video Red Sea has for using the test. The bottom of the plunger itself needs to be at the ML mark rather than the substance level, this accounts for the plastic tip that's on there.
