Description
Phosphate Water Analysis for Fresh Water or Marine Aquariums
Phosphate build up in the tank appears to be a fairly common problem in fresh water and in marine aquariums. They are present in most tap water supplies, they are also introduced to aquarium water through fish waste, uneaten fish food, and decaying plant material. Over time these compounds may build up to unnatural and undesirable levels, becoming pollutants.
A value of 0.5 mg phosphate/lt is acceptable for fresh water whereby 1 mg/Lt should not be exceeded. In Natural seawater this level is approximately 0.06 mg/lt. and can reach a level of 0.01 in reef areas.
Batch validated by NIST* for the most accurate PO4 readout!
Real Color Technology with calibrated color chart for accuracy
Very Low range (0.05) ideal for Reef aquariums
Calibrated Droppers - Every drop is exactly the same size!
Safe Non-toxic Lab Quality Reagents
Easy to Use and Read
162 tests per kit
Maximum acceptable PO4 reading: 0.01mg/l or less (Marine) 0.5 mg/l (Freshwater)
Made In Italy
The PO4 reagent from ELOS, especially developed for fresh water and sea water aquarium, allows the determination of the Phosphate value with the help of a finely tuned colour scale which shows a range of 0,01-1,5 mg/Lt
APPLICATION:
Fresh-water Aquarium
Marine Aquarium
* a sample of each batch of regents is sent to NIST (National Institute of Standard and Technology) a independent seawater lab for accuracy.
