pH 4.5 - 9.0
Description
ZOOLEK Aqua Test pHx2 is used for pH measurement in the general range of 4.5 – 9.0 with an accuracy of 0.5 and in the precise range of 6.0 – 8.0 with an accuracy of 0.2. A simple pH measurement method involves adding a few drops of indicator to the water sample, and then matching the obtained colour with a corresponding colour scale and reading the result.
Why measure pH?
Proper and relatively stable water pH-value is one of the most important parameters in determining the conditions necessary for healthy fish life in aquariums and garden ponds.
pH value in the range of 6.0-8.0 is suitable for the majority of fish; however some species require more acidic water (e.g. Characidae and Ciprinidae – pH 5.0-6.0), while others may require more alkaline water (e.g. Cichlids from the African lake of Malawi – pH of 7.8-8.3). Too high water pH may cause alkalosis, and too low may contribute to acidosis. No violent water pH value changes should be made in an aquarium with fish.
