• Helps you diagnose your pond water
• Quick and easy to use
Water hardness plays a crucial role when it comes to ph and alkalinity levels. Harder water assists your pond in controlling varying ph levels and will prevent heavy metal impurities from killing your fish. In addition, harder water usually breeds higher alkalinity levels that will absorb acidic pond content without changing PH, thus keeping your fish safe. These test strips are simple to use and will work in just a matter of minutes. Product Details: • 1 test strip • Measures from 0 to 1000 p.p.m. How to use: Open the top of the pouch and dip into the water for 3 seconds, remove from the water and do not shake, wait 20 seconds for solution to mix with water in packet, and match the color in the packet to the color block on the other side of the packet.
