Test Kits

[Sewerat]

So on the subject of test kits in another thread I have been on the search for relatively accurate and inexpensive equipment. We all know of barring levels of accuracy from kits such as API, salifert, Red Sea. But what I am looking for is the simplicity and accuracy of the hannah checkers to cover all of my needs possible. I currently have the hannah calcium and alk. I have seen the nitrites and ph but my question is the ammonia one it states for freshwater yet all my test kits do not differentiate between salt and fresh for the colour scale on the ammonia tests.

Ideally I'd like a quick and accurate test for everything required but seems that is not an option right now unless you want to spend North of $200us for some of them. But $50 a piece to me is not off the wall for as many as I can get.
