The API Freshwater Mini pH Test Kit, a compact liquid test for monitoring pH between 6.0 and 7.6 in freshwater aquariums.
Keep your fish healthy and thriving by testing your aquarium water’s pH regularly with the easy-to-use API pH Test Kit for freshwater aquariums. Testing water parameters weekly helps prevent invisible water problems that can be harmful to fish. pH is the measure of a water’s acidity, on a scale from 0 to 14, where 0 is the most acidic and 14 is the most alkaline.
Different fish require different pH levels to thrive. A pH of 7.0 suits a community aquarium with a variety of tropical fish, while goldfish and livebearers prefer a slightly higher pH of around 7.5. Many Amazonian fish, such as angelfish and neon tetras, do best at 6.5 to 6.8, and mollies and swordtails thrive at 7.2 to 7.5. The API pH Test Kit tests a wide range from 6.0 to 9.0. Simply dip a strip directly into your aquarium and use the colour-coded chart to determine if your water is safe or if adjustments are needed, then follow the recommendations to treat the water.
