    If you are going for all digital test kits for each of the parameters , it will be very very expensive.
    I know a commercial digital meter for nitrate costs something like $3k.


    And thats just nitrate alone.
    But i believe the pH one is going for about $70 at most LFS.

    Suggest you stick to normal chemical test kits , is still the cheapest.
    Unless you have many many tanks running and have to constantly test the tanks for water parameters like in a shop or breeding environment , then getting digital units for all is not feasible to say the least [:]

    Have never heard of a probe that can measure nitrate alone. Can direct me where you saw such a device? It could be a probe that measures TDS not nitrate alone.

    the pH tester has to be calibrated regularly. How is the meter to be calibrated? I think it has to be done at a lab, or else the sensor will be inaccurate. pls take note.

    Calibration will need at least two standard solution. One at pH 7.0 the other at pH 11.0. If you want it to be more accurate, you will need the pH 4.0.
    You dun have to do it in the lab, can do it yourself. should be able to calibrate pH meters. if extensively used in tank, have to get new probe after a while cos the thing will not be accurate due to the buildup on the probe.
