TestPro Nitrate

This nitrate test kit is for aquarists who need to check NO3 levels regularly in their tanks. Nitrate concentration is one of the main parameters to monitor, because high values feed algae growth. The kit gives a quick reading using a colour chart and is designed for 40 measurements.

Why it matters

• Algae control: high nitrate levels encourage algae growth, so regular testing shows when nutrient levels start to rise.
• Reef target range: the supplier gives 2-5 mg/l as the optimal nitrate range for a reef aquarium, which provides a reference point for each reading.
• Reusable test volume: the set provides material for 40 nitrate determinations, so it covers a long series of checks.
• Complete set: reagents A-NO3 and B-NO3, a measuring vial with cap, 1 ml and 2 ml syringes, a measuring spoon, instructions and a colour chart are all included.
