Salifert Profi-Test Kits-Phosphate

Salifert Profi-Test Kits - Phosphate is available from Aquatics Warehouse at a discounted price.

Salifert Profi Test Kits for reef, marine and advanced freshwater aquarists are some of the most precise and accurate test kits on the market.

Kits are available for all aspects of the aquarium's chemistry, covering organic and inorganic pollutants as well as valuable marine trace elements to allow for accurate dosing when additives are required. The kits feature bold colour changes and good colour comparison charts and offer quick and easy water testing.

There are 16 kits in the range, and most are suitable for both freshwater and saltwater environments (unless otherwise stated).

Phosphate Profi-Test:

• If phosphate is present in too high a concentration there may be an increase in growth of undesirable algae and if the phosphate level is higher than 0.04 mg/L the growth rate of corals and calcareous algae may decrease by as much as 90%.
• Washing fish food (a rich source of phosphates) after thawing can significantly reduce the input of phosphate, and using a high grade, phosphate free activated carbon can also help to keep phosphate levels as low as possible.
• The Salifert Phosphate test kit detects, in less than 5 seconds, the level of phosphate present.
• There are two different ranges within the kit: a low range for phosphate-phosphor from 0.01 - 1 mg/L and a medium range for phosphate-phosphor from 0.02 - 2 mg/L.
• Sufficient for 60 tests
