Test Kits

Test kits help you keep an eye on your aquarium water and make sure everything is safe for your fish. By checking regularly, you can catch problems early and avoid putting your fish under unnecessary stress. There are quick dip-strip tests for convenience, or liquid dropper kits if you want more accuracy. It’s especially important to test before adding any fish—you want to see 0 ppm ammonia and 0 ppm nitrite before stocking your tank. After that, it’s a good idea to test every so often, particularly in new setups or if your fish start acting unusually. Regular testing helps you spot issues before they turn into bigger problems.
