This
professional, essential but economical pond accessory will help you
monitor the condition of the water your fish live in. Contents are
sufficient for 50 Ammonia, 50 Nitrite, 50 Oxygen, 50 Chlorine/Chlorimineand
50 pH tests.
By
regularly testing your Ammonia,
Oxygen and Nitrite
levels you can make sure that your filter system is in tip top condition
and is capable of removing any excess waste that could be caused by
overfeeding. Ensuring your pond always has the correct Ammonia, Oxygen
and Nitrite levels will also help to make your fish more resistant
to disease and help ensure top quality colour definition.
The
Chlorine/Chlorimine test is critical
when filling your pond for the first time or when topping up with
tap water.
If
your pond is constantly experiencing high ph levels this can be buffered
by adding pond peat. If, however,
your pond is frequently experiencing high ammonia and/or nitrite levels
this indicates a poorly operating filtration system. This may need
servicing and bump starting with Filter
Primer. It is possible that your fish may have outgrown the
filtration system. How much bigger are they since you first put them
in? is the answer a new filter?
The kit is very simple to use and comes with full instructions and
a full colour chart to check your test results against.
