Misleading Test Results
First of all what you see in the advertisement photo is not what you get, as there is no salinity hydrometer and no reef base sand supplied. However the advertisement does not include these items in the description.The most disappointing thing about this product is that Amazon shipped both the reef mature pro kit and the marine care pro test kit beyond their expiry date. In fact the reef mature pro kit expiry date is 2013 and I had ordered this in 2015!Furthermore, the test kit gave me misleading results for over a month and caused me to panic in regards to the health of my reef tank. I decided to swap to API, which provided correct test results and assured me that my tank is in good health.Cons: the test kit was shipped beyond its expiry date and gave inaccurate resultsPros: the test kit comes in a nice plastic storage pack
