Test case with 13 water tests for the analysis of tap water and freshwater aquariums
Monitors water values in aquariums simply and reliably. Determines pH (3 ranges), carbonate hardness, general hardness, ammonium/ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, iron, copper, silicate, oxygen, and, with the help of a table, the CO2 calculation
Add the reagents to the water samples, compare on the colour chart, read off the values and check the analysis sheet to see which actions are recommended, if any
Comparator system takes the inherent water colouring into account. CO2-content is determined by pH value and KH value using the table
Contains a childproof reagent bottle in a waterproof plastic case. Refill reagents are separately available
Healthy aquariums with conditions close to nature The right water values are dependent on the fish stock and the plants in the aquarium. Even if the water looks clear it can be contaminated. Bad values can cause diseases or algae in the aquarium. To maintain a healthy aquarium with conditions close to nature it is important to check and adapt the water values regularly. With JBL water tests you can determine all relevant water values quickly, easily and very precisely.
The following tests are included in the test case: pH test: water acidity from 3.0 to 10 pH test: water acidity from 6.0 to 7.6 pH test: water acidity from 7.4 to 9.0 O2 test: determination of the oxygen content GH test: determination of the general hardness KH test: pH stability of the water (carbonate hardness) PO4 test: determination of the phosphate content (reason for algae growth and plant nutrient) Test NH4 / NH3: identifies non-toxic ammonium, uses table to determine any toxic ammonia NO2 test: determination of nitrogen compound nitrite, which is toxic for the fish NO3 test: determination of the nitrate content (reason for algae growth and plant nutrient) Fe test: determination of the iron content to monitor fertilisation Cu test: determination of heavy metal deadly for invertebrates. Also important for adjusting the dose of therapeutic medications SiO2 test: determination of the silicates (silicic acid), which cause diatoms To determine the CO2 content, you just need to measure the pH and KH values. These two values will give you the CO2 content in the water, which then can be referenced from the enclosed table.
The following water tests are available as supplements: K test: determination of the plant nutrient potassium Mg test Freshwater: determination of the plant nutrient magnesium CO2 Direct test: determination of the current carbon dioxide content for thriving plant growth
