For Healthy Aquarium
What is ammonia?
Ammonia is the main waste product produced by fish as a result of feeding. It can also be generated by the decay of uneaten food or decaying organic matter, such as plant leaves. It is invisible to the naked eye and its presence or absence cannot be determined by looking at the water alone. It is extremely toxic to the fish but is broken down into less toxic nitrite by the beneficial bacteria found in the filter.
What is the correct ammonia level?
There is no occasion where any ammonia is tolerable. A level of zero mg/l (ppm) should be maintained at all times.
What do I do if the ammonia level is wrong?
If a level of 0.2 mg/l (ppm) is found, immediate action is required. Perform a partial water change, ensure the filter is running properly, and test the water regularly to monitor improvement.

The test strips are easy to use and give clear results. I’ve been using them weekly since setting up my tank and can now detect ammonia early. My fish seem more active and healthy since I started monitoring levels regularly.

Quick and reliable. The instructions are straightforward and the color changes are easy to interpret. I noticed a spike in ammonia after feeding too much, and I was able to fix it before any fish showed signs of stress.

Great value for the price. I bought a few packs to keep on hand. The test strips stay fresh for a long time and the results are consistent. My aquarium has stayed stable since I started testing regularly.
