Just did another round of testing with them and it went MUCH more smoothly. I will have to look back and see if it actually went overseas or not...

Guess not then - regardless, it was pretty darn fast this last time and that was even over the holidays. Seemed like they got some of their logistical issues sorted. That said, the website is still glitchy as heck. Plan to do some more routine testing now that I have been burned by two different water contaminant issues after a few years of no problems 🙁 Still wish someone local would spring for one of these instruments and hook us all up 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Results are usually available 48-72 hours after they receive your sample. I usually send via standard US mail for $2.15, so I typically get results 6 days after I mail the sample.

SuncrestReef Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 I just saw an announcement today from ICP-Analysis, which is the company I've been using for water testing. They are now including a free RO/DI or tap water test when you test your saltwater, and they're providing free shipping for your samples.
