NT Labs Ammonia Test
Contains 40 Tests.
Test Regularly.

Ammonia is excreted by the fish as waste product. Too much ammonia is an indicator of poor biological filtration, and in time this will cause major health problems so test regularly.

Why test for ammonia?

Any ammonia present in the pond water will cause major health problems for the fish. Toxic ammonia can build up in ponds where there are not sufficient beneficial filter bacteria to deal with the total waste from all the fish in the pond. This situation can arise in new ponds, when new fish are added, when the filter bacteria have been disrupted (e.g during cleaning), or during accidental mis-dosing of pond medications.

What do I do if the ammonia level is wrong?

If a level of 0.2 mg/l (ppm) is recorded then add a filter booster such as Koi Care Filter Bugs. If a level above this is recorded then a substantial water change is essential. .If you do record an ammonia level in your pond, then it is important to check other vital water quality parameters, especially Oxygen, pH and Nitrite
