Tropic Marin NH4/NH3-Test is a test kit used to measure the ammonium and ammonia concentration in your aquarium water. Both ammonium (NH4+) and ammonia (NH3) are waste products produced by fish and can be harmful to your aquarium inhabitants.

Why is testing important?

  • Ammonia is toxic: Ammonia (NH3) is highly toxic to fish, even in low concentrations. It can lead to stress, disease and even death.
  • Ammonium is less toxic, but can convert: Ammonium (NH4+) is less toxic than ammonia, but it can turn into ammonia, depending on the pH of the water.
  • Biological balance: A good biological balance in your aquarium ensures that ammonium and ammonia are quickly converted into less harmful substances. Regular testing helps you monitor this balance.

What does the test measure?

The Tropic Marin NH4/NH3-Test measures the total concentration of ammonium and ammonia in your aquarium water. Using a table, you can then read the concentration of ammonia (NH3), depending on the pH and temperature of the water.

How does the test work?

The test kit contains all the necessary materials, such as vials, reagents, a syringe and a color chart. You take a water sample from your aquarium and add the reagents according to the instructions. Then compare the color of the water sample with the color chart to determine the concentration of ammonium/ammonia.

Benefits of the Tropic Marin NH4/NH3-Test:

  • Accurate: The test is accurate and reliable, giving you a good picture of the water quality in your aquarium.
  • Easy to use: The test is easy to perform, even if you have no experience with water testing.
  • Sufficient for many measurements: The kit is sufficient for about 50 measurements, so you can go for a while.
