I'm a blonde. What's your point?

I have used these since just about day one and I'm sad to stay that they are discontinued by Jungle Labs. I've been having a heck of a time locating them by me and when I did, they were beyond their expiration date. So, I finally emailed them and this was their response:
Hello,
The PTS300 has been discontinued. As with some of the other Jungle products like the pond block we are transitioning over to marketing them as Tetra items. We now offer the Tetra Pond Test Kit, item 16639. It gives results for nitrate, nitrite, GH, KH,pH. It offers more accurate measurements. Reactions stop at 60 seconds which gives truer readings.
Best regards,
US Aquatics Consumer Support
I wanted to let everyone who used them that they won't be available anymore under the Jungle Labs label. If you do happen to stumble across them, be sure to check their expiration date.

I wondered why I haven't been able to find them anywhere. Good information, Tana.

My Lowe's carry's 5 in 1 test strips and I also have Jungle labs and both give me the same readings when I tested to see if 1 gave a different reading than the other.

Unfortunately I don't have a Lowe's near me and I'd have to drive at least 30 minutes to get to one. I did find Pond Care's version of the 5 in one strips and bought that, but they bleed just like Laguna does and I couldn't get an accurate reading... or any reading really due to the blending of the colors. I took them back and got Jungle Labs aquarium strips instead, but they only contain 25 strips instead of the 50 at the same price. Highway robbery!!

wouldnt it be cheaper to just buy a kit and test over and over instead of the strips?

that's a couple of minutes you'll never get back - and could be doing something way more fun, like bbq'ing frog legs.

I was wondering Jude, do you use a sauce, or do you prefer a dry rub...? |
