Just fill a test tube with aquarium water, add a few drops of Calcium Test Solution Bottle #1 and shake until the solutions turns from pink to blue. Then compare your results with the color chart and follow the included recommendations if action needs to be taken. Kit comes with glass test tube, liquid test and color chart.

Do I need to test calcium parameters in a freshwater aquarium?
No – calcium levels need to be monitored and maintained in reef or marine aquariums, as improper levels can be harmful to corals and crustaceans.
How often should I test my calcium levels?
For best results, test calcium levels with API CALCIUM TEST KIT in your saltwater tank weekly.
