I want to test my well water for drinking purposes. Found a place in Austin - they will run 20 test for $275 - does this sound reasonable?

Nope, I took mine to the public health people in Fort Worth. Check with the County people. I think mine was $20 about 10 years ago.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Checked with our local health people and they'll do the test but it's only for bacteria . I want to test for everything - lead,etc

they have several levels of test available - goes up to $150 range if you have them test for pesticides. Think I am going to use them
