I wish everyone would watch your videos!

[@crystalfewell1805]

Refractometers are great. Thank you for the calibration video

[@glenhanley9918]

Can you use contact lens solution or something that will work as well as calibration solution? I'm asking because no one in my area sells it and I dont want to wait for it if I purchase it on line. Thnx.

[@brandonevans3777]

Another wonderful video. Thanks for putting these up.

Nice contest! Good luck everyone!

Do you recommend this brand for a beginner like me?

[@premiumaquatics]

Yes, this is perfect for beginner to advanced. Tropic Eden is one of the most heavy duty versions. RedSea is a good one too. Then we also have our own brand which is good quality and less money but Tropic Eden and Sybon are the best quality construction. They are made by the same manufacture.

[@premiumaquatics8015]

Yes. It's very easy to use and calibrate :)

I am looking for something like this. Great product

[@samlee443]

Ok , great effort , but , will the colour of water effect the reading?

[@Nicheven]

This would be awesome! I'm just getting around to setting my first tank up, and this would help a ton!

[@dude60415]

I could use one of those. I'm still using a hydrometer. Great vid on how to correctly use a refractometer.

[@ahinsanipuni]

Currently using a hydrometer is it worth upgrading?

[@dallastippie7346]

This looks like a great product!

[@erwinbedecir417]

Sir I want to know 6.4 PPM what is the equivalent to PPT can we read it there?

[@juanmvilla]

I still need to order one of these!!

[@fightinghippo]

Awesome video

[@TrashPandaFTW]

I love my Milwaukee Digital Refractometer. It's effortless.

[@premiumaquatics8015]

I find refractometers easier and more accurate to use then a hydrometer.

[@starttherebellion9146]

I would agree that using RO water (reverse osmosis) is not a good way to zero out your meter, if indeed I heard you correctly. But using _distilled_ water to zero it out _is_ recommended by the marine scientists I've seen giving instruction on using and calibrating refractometers for sea water salinity testing.
