Water Quality Test Kits

Water quality is the most important aspect in keeping a healthy aquarium, which means testing your aquarium's water for pH, ammonia, and nitrites weekly an important part of your maintenance program.

Ammonia Test Kit

City water contains ammonia, but most ammonia in a tank comes from the breakdown of food, fish waste & decaying plants. Test for ammonia every 2-3 weeks, except when tank does not appear to be in good shape, then test more often.

Nitrite Test Kit

Nitrites are toxic and should be tested once every several days in a new tank and once per week in established aquariums. Nitrites are the result of the oxidation of ammonia by nitrifying bacteria in the biofilter.

pH Test Kit

Test the pH levels of your aquarium to make sure your aquaculture and marine life flourish in sustainable conditions. The pH preference of each species varies, so it is important to test the pH often.
