So where can you get the Hannah colorimeter?

Is this currently the most accurate method of testing po4 and where can I get it?

Thanks.

Much more expensive too, almost prohibitively so.

I use it every day and find it to be the most accurate method I have ever used. I have also found it very helpful in monitoring PO4 output of CA reactor--some media put out significant amounts of PO4. http://www.pacificeastaquaculture.co...?CategoryId=21
