NT Labs Broad pH Test
The NT Labs Broad pH Test is for testing water within the pH range of 6 – 9. This pH test now covers the pH range more likely observed in your aquarium and also offers improved precision with 0.5 unit determination. There is no definitive correct pH as different fish species have their preferred pH range. Generally, the ideal pH value will lie between 7 and 8, but there are some exceptions.
When purchasing fish from your local aquatic retailer, always enquire as to the specific water requirements of the fish you are buying. If you do need to adjust the pH of your aquarium, it is vital to do this slowly to not shock the fish. Change no more than 0.5 pH units per 2 days. Providing your tap water is of suitable pH, substantial water changes can correct a dangerous pH level. Use of pH adjusters will also raise or drop the pH levels within the aquarium to the desired level with more accuracy.
Performing the test is simple. After collecting a 5 ml water sample in the clean test tube, use 5 drops of the pH reagent, replace the test tube cap and shake thoroughly. Mix and the water sample should turn dark pink. Adding one drop of reagent GH B at a time, mixing between drops, count the number of drops required for the solution to change from pink to blue. The NT Labs Hardness Test delivers fast, reliable results, and is a valuable part of your aquarium care toolkit.
