Added the AutoAqua stirrer, the Hanna and Salifert organizers+dry rack. Complete game changer on test day. No more toting everything around a little at a time, digging for reagents, and just minimized overall clutter. The stirrer makes Salifert extremely simple to determine color changes. No more rubbing my head and patting my belly wondering if those 3 extra drops were too many. Much more controlled titration. Consistency in Hanna has improved as well. No more shaking the vials wondering if it’s completely mixed. Has shaved probably 15-20 minutes off testing days. Mostly hands free, organized, and made parameter testing much more relaxing. 10/10 would buy again 🤌

Slick setup! Very organized. May I ask where you purchased the AutoAqua Stirrer? I've been trying to find one. Amazon has them now for $60 and Bulk Reef Supply is out of stock currently and selling them for half the price. Seems there hard to find at a decent price point.

I believe amazon. Wife got it for me as a gift. The reason I was hesitant was same as you, that little thing was costly. But, I’m glad she got it, tbh. It has saved a lot of time. Seems to hold a pretty good charge as well. I test twice weekly and have only had to plug it in twice in the last month. And that’s only because I wanted to, not because it died. It’s definitely not a cheap little gadget, but if you test frequently, to me, it’s well worth the money.

Thanks for letting me know - much appreciated. I'm glad to hear it's worth it. I'm going to go ahead and get one too. It's too difficult trying to dispense a single drop while swirling the test vial to ensure an accurate test, lol.

Absolutely. With the salifert, it was a huge improvement. Went from “is my calcium 420 or 460?” to “it is without a doubt 440” and it’s the same with mag and dkh. That alone made me wish I had bought it sooner.

For sure 100%. I’ve been shaking vials for almost a year. Added this little thing and it has been a life changing experience. Really just paid to remove human error and add consistency. Readings haven’t been all over the place anymore either. Took the guesswork right out of it.
