You can buy individual test kits (ie ammonia/nitrite/nitrate) that include a test tube... or at least the ammonia kit I brought did... :dontknow:

Yep the individual tests do come with test tubes so I would suggest buying an extra ammonia test kit since that is one of the more heavily used and quickly used up tests. Or if you do Nitrate tests every time you test, you should get a replacement of that since it uses 10 drops and if done every time, will be used up first.

I actually like having the two test kits since I am often testing a few different systems. If I have the two holders, I can lay out tests for two systems and get more done at one time. But I didn't actually buy the 2nd test kit till my first one was running out but I kept the holder and test tubes from the old kit.

For those who don't have access to the BYAP shop, you can order API test tubes on eBay, Amazon, and the like. The downside is they come in packs of 24, and cost about $20 USD. The upside is you can run all your tests on multiple systems at once if necessary.
