Testing your water regularly is the reason for an aquarist's success.
The main test that you should consider doing is NO3 (Nitrate). This is because Nitrates is a slow killier to fish. It affects the fish's gills and it slowly kills them.
Nitrites (NO2) and Ammonia (NH3/NH4) are fast killers to fish. However, you will visibly see when there are an abundance of Ammonia or Nitrites as your tank will appear cloudy.
You should also test your pH regularly to not get any surprises from shock.
Test your aquarium water and make sure your fish are safe with the API Ammonia Test Kit. This comprehensive kit helps detect low levels of ammonia, which can cause gill damage, lethargy, and death in fish. With its easy-to-use liquid dropper and clear instructions, checking your aquarium water has never been easier.

Clean and healthy water Plant and food remains and metabolic substances lead to a deterioration of the quality of the water in the aquarium. Good water quality is necessary for healthy fish and plants. This can be achieved with various filters and filter materials. The filters suck in the aquarium water and remove the pollution and waste materials from the water.

Test case for the most important water values in freshwater aquariums, incl. ammonium test Healthy aquariums with conditions close to natureThe right water values are dependent on the fish stock and the plants in the aquarium. Even if the water looks clear it can be contaminated. With bad values diseases or algae can appear in the aquarium. To maintain a healthy aquarium with conditions close to nature it is important to check and adapt the water values regularly. With the JBL Test Combi Set you can determine the 5 most important water values in your aquarium. Precise measurement of the following values:pH test: acidity of the water from 3.0 to 10KH test: pH stability of the water (carbonate hardness)NO2 test: toxic nitrogen compoundNO3 test: reason for algae growthNH4 test: indication of non-toxic ammonium, determination of the toxic ammonia using table To determine the CO2 content you just need to measure the pH and KH values. From both values arises the CO2 content in the water, which then can be referenced from the enclosed table. You can analyse your measured water values in the JBL Online Laboratory free of charge and receive recommendations.

Water analysis using your smartphone - the new generationNote: The test strips are only intended for one measurement each. A repeated scan of the strip leads to different values, since the strip goes on reacting indefinitely.During the analyses "Aquarium Freshwater" and "Water" the current CO2 content in the water is calculated as an additional bonus. Depending on the analysis results in the sections “Aquarium Freshwater” and “Garden Pond” individualised recommendations and hints are given as to which JBL products can help to set the ideal/optimal water values.How accurate is this measurement method?Since smartphones provide an automatic white balance, the colour reading is more accurate than if we compare colours with our eyes! If the test is performed correctly, the result is absolutely reliable. With the nitrite result, experience shows that an additional drop test measurement (with JBL PROAQUATEST NO2 Nitrite) is a good idea if the JBL ProScan result does NOT show 0, as this value needs to be 100% reliable (nitrite is fatally toxic for fish from 0.4 mg/l).Possible errors during use:When removing the test strip from the water, do not shake it vertically, as the wet colours will then run into the other colour fields. It needs to be drained off HORIZONALLY and carefully. Without dripping off, the drops on the colour fields reflect the light too strongly and lead to inaccurate results. Photographing the test strip on the colour chart should ideally be done in daylight. But even more important is that the incidence of light is uniform and does not show partial shadows and partial sunlight. If this were the case, the colours on the colour chart would be illuminated differently.
