General description The 100 Pack 6 in 1 Test Strips for Aquarium Testing is an essential tool for maintaining a healthy aquatic environment. These test strips allow you to quickly assess six critical water parameters: total hardness, nitrates, nitrites, free chlorine, carbonate, and pH, ensuring your fish thrive in optimal conditions. Technical specifications Package: 100 test strips Shelf life: 2 years Usage In just one minute, you can determine the water’s total hardness, nitrates, nitrites, free chlorine, carbonate, and pH. For total hardness, if the water is too hard, consider using soft water like distilled or reverse osmosis water. If the hardness is too low, partially change the water with tap water that has a higher hardness. Nitrate levels above 50 mg/L can be harmful to sensitive fish and promote algae growth. Nitrite levels greater than 1 mg/L can be harmful over time. Free chlorine in tap water is harmful to fish. Carbonate levels should ideally be between 120-180 mg/L.
