Tetra 7in1 Pond Water Testing Kit 25 strips - Measures pH, KH, Nitrite and Chlor

Tetra 7in1 Pond Water Testing Kit 25 strips - Measures pH, KH, Nitrite and Chlor Description

Product Description "Tetra Pond Test 7in1 quickly and reliably measures the seven most important water values in a single step. Simply and easily measure the level of pH, carbonate hardness (KH), general hardness (GH), nitrite (NO2-), nitrate (NO3-), chlorine (Cl2) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Using one test strip in the water and the colour chart, you can test and evaluate whether water values in your pond are safe to support a healthy ecosystem and thriving pond life. The general hardness (GH) affects the vital functions of pond fish, whilst carbon dioxide (CO2) is required for your pond plants to thrive. Nitrate (NO3-) is a nutrient that helps plants to grow. However, excessively high levels can be harmful to fish and promote excessive algae growth. Carbonate hardness (KH) has a direct influence on the stability of the pH value, which fish can react very sensitively to. Tetra Pond WaterStabiliser can correct any imbalances in the KH and pH levels. Nitrite is extremely harmful for the biological balance in your pond, even in very low concentrations, and should not be detectable in the water. Just like nitrite, chlorine should not be detectable in the pond water and can be treated with Tetra Pond AquaSafe." Since our foundation in 1951 by Dr Ulrich Baensch, Tetra have paved the way with research and innovation in aquatics and home fishkeeping, with a passion and fascination for fish at our core. We remain committed to making natural, species-appropriate care as easy as possible. Proudly made in Germany, with industry leading research and development, we develop innovative products made to the highest standard. As the number one fish food brand in the world, Tetra is the trusted name for all your aquatic care needs. Directions Dip the test strip in water, shake it for 2 seconds, shake it, and after 60 seconds compare the color gamut. To ensure the test strips are working, do not touch the test fields or do not hold them under running water. The latest from Tetra Pond Test 7in1 determines the level of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the pond water. CO2 is especially necessary for the growth of pond plants. In addition, pH, general hardness and carbonate hardness (GH + KH), nitrite (NO2-), nitrates (NO3-) and chlorine (Cl2) are measured in the dust water. The inhabitants of the dust react very sensitively to excessive changes in the pH value, affecting their well-being. The general hardness affects the vital functions of the fish, while carbonate hardness has a direct impact on the stability of the pH value (PH buffer). To stabilize the pH and KH values, Tetra Tetra Pond WaterStabilisers recommend Water. The Tetra Pond Test 7in1 also measures the pond water nitrite and nitrate values. Nitrite is extremely harmful to the biological balance of the dust even at very low concentrations and should not be detected in water. Nitrate is a nutrient that helps plants grow. But excessively high levels of NO3 can be harmful to the fish and promote excessive algae growth. Chlorine can also be found in water as it is often found in tap water. Like nitrite, chlorine should not be detected in pond water and should always be treated with Tetra Pond AquaSafe. One-step water test to measure seven important water values to ensure pond water is safe and healthy for pond life Measures KH and pH values which can prevent dangerous acidity fluctuations Detects the presence of dangerous nitrite and chlorine which is harmful to pond life Identifies a healthy balance of GH, CO2 and nitrate (NO3-) for optimal support of fish and plants
