Test Kits

Ammonia Alert® is an innovative color device for continuously detecting and monitoring toxic free ammonia. A sensor changes reversibly from yellow to green to blue, relative to the ammonia concentration. No test kits, chemicals, or procedures are needed. The device detects less than 0.05 mg/L (ppm) free ammonia and alerts you to the #1 killer before any sign of stress. It lasts over a year. Marine…

Seachem Ammonia Multi Test Kit can test for ammonia without the false reading of bound ammonia giving a better indication of toxicity of ammonia with in an aquarium. Measures total and free ammonia down to less than 0.05 mg/L Multi-cavity plate for simultaneous testing of up to 6 tests at the same time Includes reference for test validation Marine or Freshwater This kit measures total (NH3 and NH4…

Measures nitrite to less than 0.1 mg/L and nitrate to less than 0.2 mg/L Multi-cavity plate for simultaneous testing of up to 6 tests at the same time Includes reference for test validation Marine or freshwater Nitrite is toxic and should be undetectable in any well-established aquarium. During cycling, it may exceed 20 mg/L. Nitrate is relatively non-toxic, but it is advantageous to control it to…

This kit measures total alkalinity. Total alkalinity is a measure of the carbonate, bicarbonate, borate and hydroxide content of the water, expressed as the acid neutralizing capacity of the water in meq/L (milliequivalents/Liter). The expression of alkalinity as meq/L is chemically sound and the most useful way to express this property of the water to resist change in pH.

pH Alert Product Description pH Alert™ is a unique color device designed to be placed in the aquarium or filter and monitor pH continuously. A sensor changes color reversibly to alert you shifts to in pH levels between 5.8 and 8.2. No tests, no strips, just constant readings. Freshwater Only. Why Its Different pH Alert™ lasts up to 4 times as long as competing products. pH Alert™ is also almost ha…

Phosphate in natural sea water ranges from less than 0.01 mg/L to 0.3 mg/L. For corals in reef aquaria, such phosphates should be 0.2 mg/L or less. Phosphates are non-toxic to fish and most invertebrates, but are ideally kept below 1 mg/L to minimize algae growth. In freshwater, phosphates are not critical and the allowable concentration is dependent on variables such as nitrate, manganese, iron,…

MultiTest™ Silicate Measures silicates to less than 0.5 mg/L Multi-cavity plate for simultaneous testing of up to 6 tests at the same time Includes reference for test validation Marine and freshwater Natural sea water contains about 10 mg/L as silicate. In reef or other marine aquaria, silicate should be 1 mg/L or less. Silicate is non-toxic to fish and invertebrates, but is ideally kept below 1 mg…
