JBL NO2 Nitrite Test rapid test for determining the nitrite content in fresh/sea water aquariums & ponds Despite careful water care, it can happen that your water is contaminated. With this quick test set you can check the nitrite content in freshwater and saltwater aquariums and ponds. Simple and safe control of water values in aquariums and ponds. Determination of the optimum nitrite value for filter control for fresh and salt water Laboratory comparator system to compensate for inherent water coloration: Fill plastic cuvette with sample water, add reagents to a cuvette, place cuvette in holder, read values on color chart Duration of use: For new freshwater set-up: 3 weeks daily. For new marine water: once a week. For fish diseases or fish mortality 1 rapid test, nitrite test NO2. Contents for approx. 50 measurements. Incl. 2 reagents, 2 glass cuvettes with screw cap, syringe, comparator block and color scale. Refill reagent available separately Healthy aquarium / healthy pond with near-natural conditionsThe correct water values in the aquarium/pond depend on the fish population and the plants present. Even if the water looks clear, it may be contaminated. If the values are poor, diseases or algae can form in the aquarium/pond. For a healthy aquarium/pond with near-natural conditions, it is important to regularly check and adjust the water values. JBL offers water tests in the form of rapid tests or color change tests for every water analysis. These determine a specific value or several values simultaneously. With these water tests, algae problems can be detected and negative nitrate, nitrite, potassium, magnesium values etc. can be determined. Why test:Nitrite is produced when bacteria break down protein and ammonium. It is normally further processed into non-toxic nitrate. Nitrite (NO2) should not be measurable in aquarium and pond water. If nitrite is nevertheless measurable, the bacterial degradation process is disturbed and from a concentration of 0.4 mg/l it becomes dangerous or even fatal for fish, as nitrite blocks the oxygen transport in the blood of the animals. Water changes and good bacterial starters such as JBL Denitrol or JBL BactoPond can help.

With this test you determine the silicate content for diatom control in freshwater and marine aquariums Laboratory comparator system to compensate the inherent water color: fill glass vials with sample water, add reagents to one vial, place vials in holder, read values off color chart Use: when setting up a new aquarium, for checking tap water and during diatom problems You will find detailed information and troubleshooting tips about water analysis on the JBL website in Essentials/Aquarium Healthy aquariums with conditions close to nature The right water values are dependent on the fish stock and the plants in the aquarium. Even if the water looks clear it can be contaminated. With bad values diseases or algae can appear in the aquarium. To maintain a healthy aquarium with conditions close to nature it is important to check and adapt the water values regularly. For each water analysis JBL provides water tests in the form of rapid tests or color change tests. These determine a certain value or several values in one go. With these water tests you can recognise algae problems and negative nitrate, nitrite, potassium, magnesium values etc. Why test? Silicon is one of the most common elements in the world. As a result of the weathering of silicate rocks, silicon is washed into surface and ground water in the form of silicate. Depending on the composition of the rocks in a particular area, the mains water will contain varying amounts of dissolved silicate. The significance of silicon for aquariums and garden ponds is as a nutrient for diatoms, some aquatic plants, siliceous sponges and many other invertebrates. JBL Online Laboratory Regular monitoring for a healthy aquarium with conditions close to nature. Enter your water values into the JBL Online Laboratory and get an in-depth analysis of your values within seconds. Recommended silicate values: Freshwater aquarium (community aquarium): 0-2.0 mg/l Lake Malawi/Lake Tanganyika aquarium: the silicate content is not relevant here because grazing fish species like eating diatoms Plant aquarium with few fish (aquascaping): 0-2.0 mg/l Marine water Aquarium: 0-1.0 mg/l Pond: 0-2.0 mg/l

For initial setup with marine water: once a week. In case of green algae problems 1 quick test, Nitrate Test NO3. Contents for approx. 50 tests, incl. 2 reagents, 2 glass vials with screw caps, syringe, dosing spoon, comparator block and colour scale. Refill reagents available separately Healthy aquarium/healthy pond with conditions close to natureThe right water values are dependent on the fish stock and the plants in the aquarium/pond. Even if the water looks clear it can be contaminated. With bad values diseases or algae can appear in the aquarium/pond. To maintain a healthy aquarium with conditions close to nature it is important to check and adapt the water values regularly. For each water analysis JBL provides water tests in the form of quick tests or colour change tests. These determine a certain value or several values in one go. With these water tests you can recognise algae problems and negative nitrate, nitrite, potassium, magnesium values etc. Why test?Nitrate is the end product of the mineralisation in the aquarium/pond. Even in relatively high concentrations it is non-toxic for fish, but has an adverse effect for plant growth and the well-being of many a fish species. Furthermore too high nitrate contents promote unwanted algae growth if phosphate is present in the water as well as nitrate.

JBL Ammonium Test NH4 - Quick test for the determination of ammonium/ammonia content in fresh and saltwater aquariums and ponds Controls the water values in aquariums/ponds easily and reliably. Determines the ideal ammonium/ammonia value for filter checking in fresh and saltwater Laboratory comparator system to compensate the inherent water colouring: fill plastic cuvette with sample water, add reagents to another cuvette, place both cuvettes in holder, read values on colour chart, read in pH/NH4 table, how much ammonium has changed into toxic ammonia Duration of use: for setting up a new freshwater aquarium: 1 x daily. Initial setup with marine water: once a week. During fish diseases or fish mortality. 1 quick test, Ammonium Test NH4. Contents for approx. 50 measurements. Incl. 3 reagents, 2 glass vials with screw cap, syringe, comparator block and colour scale. Refill reagents available separately Healthy aquarium/healthy pond with conditions close to natureThe right water values are dependent on the fish stock and the plants in the aquarium/pond. Even if the water looks clear it can be contaminated. With bad values diseases or algae can appear in the aquarium/pond. To maintain a healthy aquarium with conditions close to nature it is important to check and adapt the water values regularly. Why test?The degradation or mineralisation process of all organic substances in the aquarium and pond follows these stages: proteins > ammonium > nitrite > nitrate. By measuring these stages conclusions can be drawn about the “functioning” of the systems aquarium and pond. If the ammonium or nitrite level is too high it can lead to disturbances of the bacterial balance. Ammonium is not usually measurable in a maintained aquarium with an effective biological filter and in a correctly set up garden pond. Ammonium is an important plant nutrient and normally non-toxic for fish. But depending on the pH value ammonia, which is toxic for fish, can be formed from the ammonium ion.
