Ya, not a bad deal these strips. As you can see the one I have also does pH & alk. Don't recall if I tried one of these strips in my tank water. Might should do that some time & compare to the liquid test kit readings. According to their site, the strips may end up being more accurate due to less prone to errors as when counting drops of reagent with the liquid kits.

If you're testing for chloramines, make sure the test kit is testing for "total chlorine" or "combined chlorine," not for "free chlorine." A test for "free chlorine" would misleadingly read zero in chloraminated water.
also by testing for amonia you can determin if there is chloramines present. heres a good read http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2003-11/rhf/feature/ Steve
