Even if the water looks clear it can be contaminated. With bad values diseases or algae can appear in the aquarium\/pond. To maintain a healthy aquarium\/pond with conditions close to nature it is important to check and adapt the water values regularly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor each water analysis JBL provides water tests in the form of quick tests or colour change tests. These determine a certain value or several values in one go. With these water tests you can recognise algae problems and negative nitrate, nitrite, potassium, magnesium values etc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhy test?\u003cbr\u003eNitrate is the end product of mineralisation in the aquarium\/pond. Even in relatively high concentrations it is non-toxic for fish, but has an adverse effect on plant growth and the well-being of several fish species. Furthermore too high nitrate contents promote unwanted algae growth if phosphate is present in the water as well as nitrate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRecommended nitrate values:\u003cbr\u003eFreshwater aquarium (community aquarium): 0-50 mg\/l\u003cbr\u003eLake Malawi\/Lake Tanganyika aquarium: 0-50 mg\/l\u003cbr\u003ePlant aquarium with few fish (aquascaping): 10-30 mg\/l\u003cbr\u003eMarine aquarium: 0-20 mg\/l\u003cbr\u003ePond: 0-10 mg\/l.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can analyse the water values you have measured in the JBL Online Laboratory free of charge and receive recommendations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JBL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65952192332125,"sku":"J24125","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/0256\/4701\/files\/jbltestkit.jpg?v=1789719734","url":"https:\/\/nuvowear.org\/products\/jbl-proaqua-test-no3-nitrate","provider":"JA'LANDRA RENEA MCDOLE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
