API Nitrite Test Kit
Nitrite is produced in the aquarium through fish waste, uneaten food, and by nitrifying bacteria during the natural water cycle as it breaks down ammonia. Low levels of nitrite can inhibit respiration and suppress the immune system, while high levels can lead to suffocation in fish.
The API® Nitrite Test Kit provides quick and accurate readings of nitrite levels in your tank, testing parameters from 0 to 5 ppm. With this kit, you can ensure that nitrite levels remain safe for your fish.
We recommend taking a few minutes each week to monitor your aquarium conditions and maintain a healthier underwater environment for your fish. Testing has never been easier or more accurate.
