Description

Salifert 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.
Can be used for marine, fresh and garden pond water

Great

Great by DREW CREEL

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 9/20/2007 from AUSTIN, TX UNITED STATES

Comments: Pretty simple test, easy to use, very clear instructions. Its a little difficult to distinguish between some of the colors on the scale (goes from clear = 0 to light blue = 3 with a very subtle gradient inbetween), but it was pretty obvious that I had unacceptable levels of phosphate in my water so the test did its job!
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
