The API® SALTWATER MASTER TEST KIT measures the 4 most important saltwater parameters – pH, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate – to enable easy testing of your tank’s natural cycle, and to aid in maintaining a thriving saltwater aquarium. Testing is fast, easy, and accurate, yielding precise results, and comes with 4 glass test tubes with snap-tight caps and a convenient holding tub for easy storage. This kit also includes a complete, step-by-step instructional booklet with a color chart that provides information on how to correct unsafe water conditions. Each SALTWATER MASTER TEST KIT will conduct 550+ tests, so you can get the most out of your kit for years of fast, accurate water testing. We recommend that you take a few minutes each week to monitor your aquarium conditions and create a better underwater world for your fish. Testing your aquarium water has never been so easy or accurate!

IDENTIFYING THE PROBLEM

When you first notice an issue in your planted aquarium, one of the first and most helpful steps you should take is water testing. The API FRESHWATER MASTER TEST KIT measures the key indicators of aquarium health: pH, Ammonia, Nitrite, and Nitrate. This highly accurate, economical, and easy-to-use kit performs over 800 tests, and includes precise color charts and information on how to correct unsafe water conditions. For planted saltwater aquariums, try API SALTWATER MASTER TEST KIT, which performs over 550 tests with high range pH, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate test reagents. Any unsafe water conditions can stress the fish and may prevent the fish from healing (or cause problems for your plants), so it is essential to correct any water problems before additional treatment. Another option for efficient water testing is API 5-IN-1 TEST STRIPS, which work quickly and easily to measure 5 key water parameters: pH, Nitrite, Nitrate, Carbonate Hardness, and General Hardness. This kit comes with information on how to correct unsafe water conditions, and contains highly precise color charts for easy comparison to test results.

MEASURING WATER PARAMETERS

Water testing is an important part of boosting and maintaining aquarium health to ensure optimal aquarium conditions. API® SALTWATER MASTER TEST KIT measures the four most important saltwater parameters – pH, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate – to enable easy monitoring of your tank’s nitrogen cycle, and to aid in maintaining a thriving saltwater aquarium. Testing is fast, easy, and accurate, yielding precise results, and comes with four glass test tubes with snap-tight caps and a convenient holding tub for easy storage. The kit also includes a safe, step-by-step instructional booklet with a color chart that provides information on how to correct unsafe water conditions. Another great testing kit for a saltwater aquarium with corals or reefs is the API REEF MASTER TEST KIT, which measures calcium, carbonate hardness, phosphate, and nitrate, all of which can have a significant impact on the health of your live corals. Testing is fast, easy, and accurate, yielding precise results, and comes with four glass test tubes with snap-tight caps and a convenient holding tub for easy storage. The kit includes a safe, step-by-step instructional booklet with a color chart that provides information on how to correct unsafe water conditions. It is also possible to use API 5-IN-1 TEST STRIPS on established tanks to determine your water quality by measuring nitrite, nitrate, pH, and carbonate hardness parameters in your aquarium. For newer tanks, it is essential to test for toxic ammonia in addition and so it is recommended to use API AMMONIA TEST STRIPS to ensure that these levels are kept to a minimum. Test strips are fast, accurate, and easy to use, and include information on how to correct unsafe water conditions. Your nitrate levels can be used as a guide to determine your water exchange frequency and amounts, simply adjust your water change schedule so that your nitrate does not exceed 20ppm between water changes.

MEASURING WATER PARAMETERS

Water testing is an important part of boosting and maintaining tank health to ensure optimal aquarium conditions, so we recommend weekly water testing. If tests reveal high ammonia, nitrate, or phosphate, this is an indication that it is time to perform a water change. For testing of all of these parameters, use API FRESHWATER MASTER TEST KIT to ensure that harmful levels are kept to a minimum. The kit is accurate and easy to use, and includes information on how to correct unsafe conditions.
