Why test your water parameters?

Testing the levels of Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate, and pH in pond water is important because these parameters affect the health and well-being of aquatic life.

Ammonia is produced by fish waste, decomposing organic matter, and uneaten food. High levels of ammonia can be toxic to fish, leading to stress, illness, and even death.

Nitrite is produced by the breakdown of ammonia by beneficial bacteria in the pond's filter system. Nitrite can also be toxic to fish, causing oxygen deprivation, and damage to the gills and other organs.

Nitrate is the end product of the nitrogen cycle and can build up in the pond over time, leading to algae blooms and other water quality issues.

pH is a measure of the water's acidity or alkalinity and can affect the ability of fish and other aquatic organisms to breathe, metabolize food, and maintain proper bodily functions. Regular testing of these parameters allows pond owners to identify potential problems early and take corrective action to ensure the health and well-being of their aquatic pets.
