Best test kits

[alym]

What would be the best test kit set to buy - basically something that's affordable, but good for ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH, etc...

There are so many brands and I am just not sure which is best...

Thanks,
Alym

How much do those run for? Is there a cheap place to get it online? My LFS wants 40 dollars for that!

Is the Tetra test kit any good? I got it before I found out about the API one....

Its 22.99 at petsmart.com. Print it off, and take it into the store if you have one nearby. They will price match anything. The stealth heaters and penguin filters have huge price differences between the store and online.

Cheapest I see in the US; we get screwed in Canada though - cheapest I have seen is 36 bucks plus tax.
