I want to know what are water testing kits for, how much they cost, and how often I should do this. I will award ten points to the best answer. Please help.

You need test kits for:

NitrIte and NitrAte
PH
Ammonia

Avoid testing strips as they can be inaccurate, try to get ones that use the test tubes. They normally cost £5 to £10, for each, in the UK, (about $10-$20)

If it's a newly set up tank, you should test everyday so that you can keep track of the nitrogen cycle, and then go down to once a week once you have cycled your tank.
