JBL ProAquatest LAB Proscape Test case for a complete water analysis in plant aquariums Monitors the water values in aquariums simply and reliably. Determines: pH value, carbonate hardness, CO2 direct, iron, magnesium freshwater, potassium, phosphate, silicate and nitrate Add the reagents to the water samples, compare on the colour chart, read off the values and check the analysis sheet to see which actions are recommended, if any Comparator system takes the inherent water colouring into account (compensating it) Contains a childproof reagent bottle in a waterproof plastic case. Refill reagents are separately available Package contents: 1 test case incl. 22 reagents, 12 glass vials, 1 special potassium cuvette, 2 syringes, 3 measuring spoons, thermometer, comparator block, 2 plastic cuvettes, colour charts, pen, report sheets, operating instructions Perfect plant growth is not rocket science!Once you have used these water tests in your aquarium water to measure the water values relevant for plant growth, you will know exactly whether and what your aquatic plants lack for healthy growth. Only then can you add the missing elements, such as potassium, with a suitable fertiliser (JBL PROSCAPE K MACROELEMENTS).The following tests are included in the test case:pH test: water acidity from 6.0 to 7.6CO2 Direct test: determination of the current carbon dioxide content for thriving plant growthKH test: pH stability of the water (carbonate hardness)PO4 test: determination of the phosphate content (reason for algae growth and plant nutrient)NO3 test: determination of the nitrate content (reason for algae growth and plant nutrient)Fe test: determination of the iron content to monitor the fertilisationK test: determination of the plant nutrient potassiumMg test Freshwater: determination of the important mineral magnesium for healthy plant growthSiO2 test: determination of the silicates (silicic acid), which cause diatoms
