Tetra Pond Test 6-in-1 Strip, to Test 6 Essential Water Quality Parameters in Less Than 60 Seconds (25 Strips),White

Measures the pH, general and carbonate hardness (GH + KH), nitrite (NO2-), nitrate (NO3-), and chlorine (Cl2)

Dip the test strips into the water, swirl them in the water for one or two seconds, shake off any excess water and read off the most important information about the water values just 60 seconds later

pH - The pH value of the water indicates the acid or base concentration that is important for the health of the fish. A pH value between 6.5 and 8.5 is tolerated by every pond fish species

KH - KH acts as a pH-buffer and the favourable KH values are between 3 ° and 10 °dH

Tetra Pond Test 6-in-1 Strip, to Test 6 Essential Water Quality Parameters in Less Than 60 Seconds The Tetra Pond test strips enable you to quickly and reliably determine the six most important water values in ponds in one simple step: dip the test strips into the water, swirl them in the water for one or two seconds, shake off any excess water and read off the most important information about the water values just 60 seconds later. The colour chart can be used to determine whether these are within the safe range. The pH, general and carbonate hardness (GH + KH), nitrite (NO2-), nitrate (NO3-) and chlorine (Cl2) in the garden pond water are measured. Pond inhabitants such as fish react very sensitively to excessive changes in the pH value, which impacts their well-being. The general hardness affects the vital functions of fish, while the carbonate hardness has a direct influence on the stability of the pH value (pH buffer). The test strips also measure the nitrite and nitrate values of the pond water.
