The key to keeping a healthy & successful aquarium or reef is testing your water parameters on a regular basis for elements, compounds, and or chemicals with Water Test Kits. If test kits are used on a regular basis you should be able to detect a problem early enough to correct it before a mishap occurs. Before you can begin testing you must know the parameters of the habitat you are trying to simulate for your animal. A few examples of the signifiance of water testing are as follows; high ammonia or nitrite levels will result in cloudy water and fish loss. High nitrate and phosphate levels can cause a troublesome algae bloom. Incorrect pH levels will strip a fish of its slime coat, cause stress and could lead to an outbreak of disease.
