I love aquarium co-op test strips. They save me so much time and I don’t need to deal with chemicals.

I have the API Master kit and I have to continuously repeat test because either one drop of solution slipped by and I know that will mess up the results or my mind is tired I work too many hours at night and I get confused so I usually do my test twice just to make sure I'm accurate to check myself. And it's to do all the tests it's usually a 20-30 minute ordeal back and forth. I watched this video and said that's it! This is what I need this is what I want and I just placed an order! Thank you so much for this wonderful review! I will use your test strips and the API Master kit ammonia test from here on out! Can't wait for them to come!

Thanks, for the review. I have been loving Coop's strips also. I tried using just the master test kit and I just don't have the patience nor the desire to play amateur chemist. It got to the point where I just stopped testing completely because I was dreading pulling out the test kit so I knew it was time to switch to strips.

I completely understand that! The master test kit is great but it's definitely a lot more time consuming and sometimes it's just to much to hassle with. Once you get them let me know how you like them.

You know what I appreciate? I have the tetra test kits and all the starter colors are off... They're darker than what's on the instructions for some of the tests... Mostly the nitrates which is what I look at most. It's definitely not white. So I just have to assume that because my color didn't change at all, my nitrates are fine??

The only difference is.. api master test kit is found in mist countries, unlike Cory's test strips. Which is not his fault. But shipping companies. Cause he did try to ship to Australia

When I test for nitrate with the Co-op strips, after a minute's wait it shows around 10 ppm. But after another 30-60 seconds, the color turns a much brighter pink -- showing maybe 40+ ppm. So I guess reading the strip at exactly one minute is critical? Thoughts?

Ammonia takes a longer time in the water to get an accurate reading which is why none of the test strips include ammonia.

What’s the difference between KH, total alkalinity and carbonate?
@IansFishRoom

KH is the measurements of carbonates and bicarbonates in water. The KH acts as a buffer and helps neutralize acid (low PH).

Is there a reason why they wouldn't include ammonia? For me, that would seem the most critical. Although the time savings and lack of vigorously shaking for nitrate is nice.

There are ammonia test strips available from aquarium co-op but they have different instructions for testing. I'm not sure there are any all in one test strips that test ammonia. I believe it's due to the ammonia tests needing to be directly in the water longer.

Ammonia tests have to be kept in water much longer than the other tests which is why they have different test strips. There are no test strips that are all in one that include ammonia that I'm aware of.
