    API is pretty roundly trashed by most people but I do actually like their ammonia test. The others....not so much.

    My favorites are :

    Nitrate- Salifert or Red Sea. I like Red Sea better if your nitrate is really low but Salifert if it's a little higher.

    Calcium-Salifert

    Alkalinity-Hanna Checker

    Phosphate-Hanna Checker ULR

    Magnesium-Salifert
