Sera Nitrate-Test (NO3)-15ml (Volume – 15ml)

The sera NO3 test is a water test for checking the nitrate content in the fresh and saltwater aquarium, as well as in garden ponds.

Determine water values
pH value, carbonate hardness (KH), ammonium and nitrite are among the most important water parameters. Extreme deviations from the target values can suddenly become an acute danger to life. Whenever the appearance or behaviour of the fish is conspicuous, or other peculiarities (eg sudden dying of aquatic plants) in the aquarium are noticeable, the basic water values should be checked first. For routine control, the easy-to-use test strips can be used. For more accurate results, we recommend the test of the sera aqua-test box in a sturdy plastic case. Total hardness, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, iron, copper, chlorine, silicate and oxygen should be known to the experienced aquarist as averages in their aquarium. Checking these values every now and then is usually enough. If suspected (eg poisoning, algae problems, shortness of breath) these parameters should be examined more closely.

Nitrate is detected easily, quickly and safely with the nitrate test. If algae proliferate, fish and plants take care of, the nitrate value is expected to be over 50 mg / l and quickly becomes a problem.
