Hanna Phosphate Checker

I am thinking of ordering one of these. Are they worth it or should I just stick with the Salifert Phosphate kit I have used in the past ?

I would get the HI 736 PHOSPHORUS TESTER instead. Test P04 to a lower level.

It can't test for PO4 over .6 but most keep their tank below .1 ppm

To get PO4 from P, you have x by 3.5 or something like that. That is the only down size you dont get PO4 readings.
