pH Low Range ( 6.0 - 7.6 ) Test

This test is best used for aquariums containing common tropical fish, such as Tetras, Discus, Angels etc. pH levels should be monitored regularly because they have a direct effect on fish health

225 Tests

pH High Range ( 7.4 - 8.6 ) Test

This test is best used for aquariums containing fish that prefer alkaline conditions, such as African Cichlids or Marine fish. pH levels should be monitored regularly because they have a direct effect on fish health

125 Tests

pH Wide Range ( 4.5 - 9.0 ) Test

The pH Wide Range Test will determine the general range of pH in an aquarium. Certain species of fish require specific levels of pH to survive. By classifying water as acidic or alkaline, a natural habitat can be created for assorted species of fish

100 Tests

Ammonia ( 0.0 - 7.3 mg/l ) Test

Weekly testing of ammonia levels will indicate if the biological filter is working efficiently or if the ammonia is reaching dangerous levels

70 Tests

Ammonia ( 0.0 - 6.1 mg/l ) Test

Weekly testing of ammonia levels will indicate if the biological filter is working efficiently or if the ammonia is reaching dangerous levels

50 Tests

Nitrite ( 0.0 - 3.3 mg/l ) Test

Monitoring nitrite levels on a weekly basis is important to understand if there is a problem in an aquarium or to track the progression of its biological activity (Nitrogen Cycle)

75 Tests

Nitrate ( 0.0 - 110.0 mg/l ) Test

Nitrate should be tested on a regular basis as a measure of pollution in the aquarium and to determine if a water change is necessary. Nitrate accumlulates in aquariums over a period of time and is difficult to remove by conventional filtration means.

80 Tests

General Hardness (GH) & Carbonate Hardness (KH) Test

Testing for General Hardness (GH) should be done to determine if the levels of Calcium (Ca) and Magnesium (Mg) are optimal for specific species of fish. Carbonate Hardness (KH) levels need to be tested on a regular basis because they fluctuate over time and can negatively impact the pH balance of the aquarium. Low Carbonate Hardness will result in poor plant growth

Phosphate ( 0.0 - 5.0 mg/l ) Test

Phosphate levels should be monitored weekly. High levels of Phosphate, often the result of overfeeding or infrequent water changes, can contribute to unsightly algae growth

75 Tests

Iron ( 0.0 - 1.0 mg/l ) Test

Iron levels need to be carefully monitored in order to maintain lush, planted aquariums. The Hagen Iron Test for Fresh or Salt Water can also help distinguish between chelated iron, which is more easily assimilated by plants, and toxic non-chelated iron

50 Tests

Calcium Test

Specific levels of Calcium need to be carefully maintained for various marine invertebrates, e.g. live coral

For Fresh & Saltwater use

Includes everthing you need to test for:

A-7731 pH Stabilizer

- pH Stabilizer
- Replenishes carbonate hardness (KH) levels to provide optimal conditions for fish health and plant growth
- Maintains stable pH conditions
- For freshwater use
- Phosphate and Nitrate Free

A-7743 pH Adjuster - Up

- Safely raises pH
- At low levels of pH the beneficial bacteria are less active
- For species that prefer more alkaline environments such as guppies, mollies, swordtails and African cichlids
- It is advised not to change the pH by more than 0.5 in a 24 hour period as this will stress the fish
- Will not effect either carbonate or general hardness
- For freshwater use
- Phosphate and Nitrate Free

A-7753 pH Adjuster - Down

- Safely reduces pH
- For species that prefer more acidic environments such as tetras, barbs and South American cichlids
- It is advised not to change the pH by more than 0.5 in a 24 hour period as this will stress the fish
- Will not effect either carbonate or general hardness
- For freshwater use
- Phosphate and Nitrate Free
