Water Test Kit (5-in-1) Fresh & Salt water (50 strips)

This 5-in-1 water test has been designed for fresh and sea water aquariums & ponds, and is ideal to test any fresh & salt water. It checks tests for 5 different elements: nitrate, nitrite, total hardness, total alkalinity and pH in one test strip.The special pH test pad is designed for low-ionic and low-buffered waters present in aquariums. The test strips measure water hardness due to calcium carbonate and can help you determine whether you have hard or soft water in just seconds.

• Simple Dip-Wait-Read Testing Method
• Fast and accurate results
• Test strips are stored in a plastic container to protect them
• Ideal for quick and reliable testing of fresh & sea water

Total Test Time: approx. 1 minute and 10 seconds

Testing Levels:

• pH (read first): 6.4, 6.8, 7.2, 7.6, 8.0, 8.4
• Total Alkalinity: 0, 3/54, 6/107, 10/179, 15/268, 20/357 dKH / ppm (mg/l)
• Total Hardness*: 0, 3/54, 7/125, 15/268, 28/498 ppm DH, GPG / ppm (mg/l)
• Nitrite**: 0, 0.5, 1, 5, 10, 25 ppm (mg/l)
• Nitrate**: 0, 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500 ppm (mg/l)

*measured as calcium carbonate**For the nitrite test pad, the unit of measure is as nitrite, not nitrite-nitrogen. For the nitrate test pad, the unit of measure is as nitrate, not nitrate-nitrogen.

How to use:

1. Dip one strip with all pads into water sample for 2-3 seconds with gentle motion.
2. Remove strip and hold level.
3. Wait 1 minute, then compare colour change to colour chart on the container.
