Description
Nitrate Profi-Test When there are insufficient areas of a tank which are deprived of oxygen (anaerobic zones) or denitrification isn’t taking place properly, nitrate will build up. This can also happen in an aquarium where the biological loading on the system is causing an imbalance e.g. if there is over the top livestock for the aquarium volume or over feeding is going on. The build up of nitrate may end up in unwanted algae growth and the slowing down of coral growth. The nitrate concentration in a reef aquarium will have to be lower than 1 mg/L, even if fish only aquariums would frequently have a higher concentration. Just as with nitrite, many nitrate test kits are prone to amine interference which may make the levels of nitrate appear much lower than they in fact are. The Salifert test kit does not be afflicted by such interference and gives accurate and quick results with a total testing time of less than 3 minutes. The test kit’s range goes from a very low to a very high nitrate concentration (approx. 0.2 – 100 mg/L as total nitrate). Sufficient for 50 tests. This test offers two ranges:Low range: 0.2 – 10 mg/L (ppm) as nitrate.Medium range: 2 – 100 mg/L (ppm) as nitrate.Clean test vial and scoop after use. Store this kit in a dry place.Warning!KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
