Hi guys, looking at upgrading test kit (sick of most of the the api and have shattered almost all my tubes). I was looking at a hanna for alk and the red sea kit for the others. My LFS who i have recently come to trust and has been very helpful to me has recommended this JBL kit, which he says have just recently come back into stock. For about $120 you get tha basic tests, then theres a $200 set which tests a few extras and comes in neat looking box tests include
pH, carbonate hardness, calcium, magnesium, copper, ammonium, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, silicate, oxygen
I told him id wait a week till i had enough to get the full kit as it seemed more worth it.
I then went home and did some research on it as i had never heard of jbl kits. What i found were some pretty negative reviews on a forum from 2010, and then a video on youtube of a guy with the kit in 2017 explaining that some of the tests are unusable for marine testing.
Has anyone got experience with this kit and do you think based on reviews i should give it a miss?

Any advice much appreciated [emoji111]
