Aquavascular Freshwater Ammonia Test Kit

Aquavascular Freshwater Ammonia Test Kit – High-Precision NH₄⁺ Toxicity Monitoring for Aquariums

Aquavascular’s Freshwater Ammonia Test Kit is designed to accurately measure ammonia (NH₄⁺), one of the most harmful substances that can accumulate in a freshwater aquarium. Even at low concentrations, ammonia can damage gills, disrupt respiration and stress fish and shrimp. This kit provides a reliable way to monitor ammonia during tank cycling, after water changes, medication treatments or filtration issues.

With clear colour indicators and simple usage steps, this test kit enables aquarists to maintain safe water conditions and take corrective action before ammonia becomes dangerous.

Care & Maintenance Tips

• Test more frequently during cycling or after adding new fish.
• If ammonia is detected, perform partial water changes immediately.
• Improve biological filtration or add beneficial bacteria products as needed.
• Avoid overfeeding — excess food increases ammonia levels.
• Rinse test vials thoroughly after every use.
• Store reagents in a cool, dry area away from sunlight.
