API Phosphate PO4 Freshwater & Saltwater Aquarium Test Kit, 150 count
Prevent excess phosphate in your fresh or saltwater tank with API Phosphate PO4 Fresh & Salt Water Aquarium Test Kit. Phosphate can come from tap water, waste, uneaten food or dead algae. In freshwater tanks, high phosphate levels can cause algae and green water blooms; in saltwater tanks, it can stunt the growth of hard corals. This easy-to-use test kit measures phosphate levels from 0 to 10. Simply fill a test tube with your tank water, add a few drops of both test samples and shake. Then compare your results to the color card and follow instructions to lower phosphate if necessary. Frequent testing is recommended to help maintain healthy aquarium conditions.

For what type of tank is API PHOSPHATE TEST KIT most appropriate? Why should I test for phosphate?
Phosphate enters your aquarium through fish and invertebrate waste, and excess phosphate can cause problematic conditions in your tank. Use the API PHOSPHATE TEST KIT to test for high phosphate levels weekly. May be used for both marine (saltwater) and freshwater aquariums.
