Salifert Phosphate Test Kit

Salifert Phosphate Test Kit, another great addition to the Salifert range! When I can't use my regular phosphate testing kit (I use a Hanna Instruments Checker on all my personal tests done on all our systems and any of our offered services) then I'll go straight to Salifert!

If phosphate is present in too high a concentration there may be an increase in growth of undesirable algae and if the phosphate level is higher than 0.04 mg/L the growth rate of corals and calcareous algae may decrease by as much as 90%.

Washing fish food (a rich source of phosphates) after thawing can significantly reduce the input of phosphate, and using a high grade, phosphate free activated carbon can also help to keep phosphate levels as low as possible.

The Salifert Phosphate test kit detects, in less than 5 seconds, the level of phosphate present.

There are two different ranges within the kit: a low range for phosphate-phosphor from 0.01 - 1 mg/L and a medium range for phosphate-phosphor from 0.02 - 2 mg/L.

Sufficient for roughly 60 tests
