Mitsuru Aquarium NO₃ Test – drop-count water test

This drop test is for aquarists who want to check nitrate levels in their tank water on a regular basis. It suits planted, general community, biotope and shrimp tanks, where nitrate readings show how the tank is coping with its biological load and how fast plants are using nutrients.

Why it matters

• It measures nitrates (NO3), one of the key parameters in planted, general, biotope and shrimp aquariums.
• Regular readings give a picture of the biological load in the tank and of how well the filtration is working.
• In planted tanks, the NO3 result serves as a reference point when deciding how much nitrogen to dose.
• Tracking the trend over time shows how quickly plants consume nutrients between water changes.
