Get a fast, accurate reading of your pond’s water condition with API's Pond 5-IN-1 Test Strips. Routine pond maintenance is the key to keeping the water condition as close to your finned friends' natural habitat as possible. Safe for both freshwater and saltwater, these strips measure pH, nitrite, nitrate, carbonate hardness and general hardness with a single strip.

Not easy to understand
By Littlebear on Jun 20, 2020
This product is good but not easy to understand the scale and what you need to correct the water problem. The instructions are vague and not very helpful.

Quick and Easy Test
By Halfpint63 on Jun 4, 2018 top500Contributor
I wanted to try the Pond Test Strips in conjunction with the API Pond Test Kit to compare the results. SPOT ON READINGS for PH and Nitrites with Nitrate, KH & GH testing that the Kit didn't have. So between both I can rest assured that my water parameters are Exactly where they need to be for MY FINBABY'S!
