Salifert Ammonia NH3 Profi Test

Salifert Ammonia NH3 Profi Test – Freshwater & Marine

Product Overview

The Salifert Ammonia NH3 Profi Test is a precise, rapid test for measuring ammonia and ammonium levels in freshwater and saltwater aquariums. Ammonia is one of the most toxic compounds for fish and aquatic life; its presence often indicates that the aquarium has not completed its biological cycle or that biological processes are not functioning correctly.

Primary Uses

• Measuring total ammonia (NH3 + NH4) in freshwater and saltwater aquariums.

• Monitoring the completion of the nitrogen cycle in new aquariums.

• Early detection of biological issues within the aquarium.

• Suitable for fish tanks, reef tanks, and quarantine systems.

Benefits and Features

• Accurately measures the combined levels of toxic ammonia and ammonium.

• Provides rapid results within a few minutes.

• High sensitivity, capable of easily detecting ammonia levels as low as 0.5 ppm.

• Easy to use with clear, readable results.

• Essential for maintaining a safe environment for fish and aquatic life.

• Sufficient for approximately 50 tests.

• Suitable for both freshwater and saltwater.

• A reliable product from the Dutch company Salifert.

The Importance of Measuring Aquarium Ammonia

Ammonia and ammonium must be rapidly converted into nitrite and subsequently nitrate as part of the natural nitrogen cycle. If this process fails, ammonia levels can rise to toxic concentrations, posing a direct threat to fish. Regular monitoring enables early intervention before losses occur.

Instructions for Use

Fill the test vial with the specified amount of aquarium water.

Add the ammonia test reagent according to the instructions. Wait a few minutes for the color to develop.

Compare the color with the color chart to determine the ammonia level.
