Thiese strips are a must for every aquarium owner. They are easy to use and accurate. Just dip in the water and get you results. Great for every week use and on the spot if you think there is a problem in the tank.

Pros: Easy to use

Cons: none

These strips make testing your tank really easy. However I once had a fish expert recomend the liquid test drops to me because they are supposed to be mor accurate and they last longer. But these strips are great!

Pros: Really easy to use

Cons: not as accurate as liquid testers

I have a very curious 4 year old that questions EVERYTHING. She loves when I explain things by showing her how to help. These strips are extremely easy to use. I let my 4 year old help me to compare the results to the strip. Not only does the product work, but it helped me teach my child about caring for our animals.

Pros: Easy understand the results from the strip

Cons: Not sure of any con yet.

Being a chemist myself I've been waiting for this technology to be available to consumers in an affordable manner. I love these things and buying them from the store beats borrowing a couple from the lab. The color can be hard to match, but thats nothing new and you get used to it after awhile. Can't be more excited.

Pros: quick, simple, easy to use

Cons: can be hard to judge color, nothing new there

These are much much easier to use than my traditional water testing which needed little glass tubes, measuring to a little line and adding in some weird chemicals that had way too many warnings of chemical burns, this product however just required a dip. No searching for the tubes and chemicals, easy easy easy.

Pros: Easy to use! No tubes and measuring

Cons: Disposable
