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\u003cbr\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\u003cbr\u003eWhy test?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn an aquarium, phosphate primarily enters the water as a result of the digestive processes of the fish or in the form of food remains. In ponds, phosphate primarily enters the water as a result of leaves and dying pond plants\/algae. If conditions are unfavourable, the phosphate levels may reach values that are sometimes 100 times higher, and more, than natural levels. Undesirable algae will then multiply exponentially as an inevitable consequence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecommended phosphate values:\u003cbr\u003eFreshwater aquarium (community aquarium): 0-0.4 mg\/l\u003cbr\u003eLake Malawi\/Lake Tanganyika aquarium: 0-0.4 mg\/l\u003cbr\u003ePlant aquarium with few fish (aquascaping): 0.1-1.5 mg\/l\u003cbr\u003eMarine aquarium: 0-0.1 mg\/l\u003cbr\u003ePond: \u0026lt;0.05 mg\/l\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JBL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65952773734749,"sku":"J24127","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/0256\/4701\/files\/jblpo4testkit.jpg?v=1789723479","url":"https:\/\/nuvowear.org\/products\/jbl-proaqua-test-po4-sensitive","provider":"JA'LANDRA RENEA MCDOLE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
