NT Labs Ammonia Test Kit

NT Labs Ammonia Test Kit – Your Key to Maintaining a Healthy Aquatic Environment

Understanding Ammonia: Fish waste, uneaten food, and decaying organic matter contribute to the production of ammonia, the primary waste product in aquariums. While invisible to the naked eye, ammonia poses a significant threat to fish health. Fortunately, beneficial bacteria in the filter break down ammonia into less toxic nitrite, ensuring a safer environment for your aquatic companions.

Correct Ammonia Level: Zero tolerance for ammonia is crucial. Maintain a level of zero mg/l (ppm) at all times to safeguard the well-being of your fish.

What to Do if Ammonia Levels Are Wrong:

• If the level is 0.2 mg/l (ppm), add a filter booster like Filter Bugs.
• For levels above 0.2 mg/l (ppm), conduct a substantial water change. Change 25% of the volume for 0.5 – 1.0 mg/l (ppm) ammonia and 50% for higher levels. Introduce Zeolite to the filter compartment to remove ammonia.
• In case of any ammonia detection, check other critical water quality parameters such as pH, KH, and nitrite.

How to Use:

1. Ensure the test tube is clean.
2. Collect a 5 ml water sample into the test tube.
3. Add 5 drops of Ammonia 1, 5 drops of Ammonia 2, and 5 drops of Ammonia 3.
4. Replace the test tube cap, shake thoroughly, and wait for 10 minutes.
5. Compare the colour of the sample to the provided colour scale. A yellow colour indicates zero ammonia, while any hint of green signals the presence of ammonia in the water.

Additional Information:

• The test kit reports concentration in terms of nitrogen (NH3-N) for compatibility with reported safe concentrations applicable to fish and plants.
• If interested in the ionic concentration, multiply the result by 1.21 (NH3-N).

Trust NT Labs Ammonia Test Kit to accurately assess ammonia levels, empowering you to maintain a pristine and healthy aquatic environment for your beloved fish. Keep your water quality in check and ensure the well-being of your aquatic companions with NT Labs.

Kusuri Nitrite Test Kit

The Kusuri Nitrite Test Kit comprises of 3 x 10 foil sealed tablets, test tube with cap, plastic acetate colour match chart with colour breaks at 0/0.1/0.25/0.5/1.0/2.0 and 4mg/L.

The Kusuri Nitrite Test Kit features Palintest technology components, they are the very best in visual test kits.

The Kusuri Nitrite Test kit features an easy to colour match plastic acetate card, and are supplied with non-degradable foil sealed tablets. Each kit will do 30 tests. The ‚‚¦one off‚‚½ range principle is exactly that!  Buy it once, and you can replenish your kit with refill tablets (for 50 tests) or any other components required, and of course we put plenty of water quality information in our kits, so appropriate action can be taken if results are not as anticipated.

Kusuri Test Kits feature an accurate plastic acetate colour strip. When held up to a daylight source, it is far easier to compare than a paper printed chart.

NT Labs Pond Water Mini Test Kit

NT Labs Pond Water Mini Test Kit – Compact Excellence for Essential Pond Water Testing

When to Use: For the conscientious pond keeper, the NT Labs Pond Water Mini Test Kit is your compact companion for ensuring excellent water quality. This mini kit is designed to test three crucial water parameters: pH, Nitrite, and Ammonia. Regular testing is essential to maintain the well-being of your fish and the overall health of your pond.

Understanding Ammonia: Ammonia, excreted by fish as a waste product, is extremely toxic. This kit helps you monitor ammonia levels, crucial for fish health, as it is broken down into less harmful nitrite by beneficial bacteria in the pond filter.

Understanding Nitrite: Nitrite is produced as beneficial bacteria break down harmful ammonia in the pond and filters. While less toxic than ammonia, elevated nitrite levels can still harm fish. Nitrite is further broken down into nitrate, which is less harmful to fish.

Understanding pH: The pH test in this kit measures the acidity or alkalinity of pond water on a scale from 0 to 14. It provides insights into whether your water is acidic, alkaline, or neutral. This information is vital for maintaining a suitable environment for aquatic life.

How to Perform the Tests: This mini kit includes a comprehensive instruction leaflet that guides you through each parameter, their optimal ranges, and recommended actions if readings are outside those ranges. It’s designed to be user-friendly, ensuring accurate and hassle-free testing.

Reported Concentrations for Compatibility: The test kit reports concentrations in terms of nitrogen (NH3-N) or (NO2-N), aligning with reported safe concentrations for fish and plants. If you’re interested in the ionic concentration of the measured parameter, simply multiply the result by 1.21 (NH3-N) or 3.29 (NO2-N).

Key Features:

• Compact design for testing pH, Nitrite, and Ammonia.
• Essential for maintaining excellent water quality in ponds.
• User-friendly instructions for accurate testing.
• Compatible concentrations for fish and plants.

Trust the NT Labs Pond Water Mini Test Kit for efficient and reliable testing of crucial parameters in your pond. Keep your fish and pond environment healthy with regular monitoring using this compact yet powerful kit. Choose NT Labs for precision in pond water testing.
