Same here as above poster. Not color blind, but could never get consistent results with Red Sea kits. Switched to salifert and got more consistent results. Switched to a Hanna checker just for relative ease of use since ALK will be the one kit you test the most. Besides who wouldn't agree that a numerical readout is better then trying to judge a color change?
I also use the salfert test kits. I find it is easiest to do the test in front of a window. Much easier to see the color change for me. Though my neighbors must think I might be cooking meth watching me drip and swirl once a week.
