Product description
API GH/KH Hardness Test Kit – Accurate Water Hardness Testing for Freshwater Aquariums
Maintain optimal health for your freshwater fish and plants by regularly testing your aquarium’s water hardness with the API GH & KH Test Kit. Water hardness measures the dissolved minerals in your water, including general hardness (GH) and carbonate hardness (KH), both of which are essential to replicate your fish’s natural habitat.
This easy-to-use kit helps detect low KH levels that can cause rapid and wide pH fluctuations, stressing fish and impacting aquarium stability. Regular monitoring ensures a balanced environment tailored to the needs of your freshwater or tropical species.
Key Features:
- Tests general hardness (GH) and carbonate hardness (KH) in freshwater and tropical aquariums
- Helps prevent stress caused by sudden pH shifts due to low KH levels
- Supports recreating natural water conditions for healthy fish and plants
- Includes KH and GH test bottles, two capped glass test tubes, colour chart, and clear step-by-step instructions
Why Test GH & KH?
- General hardness (GH) indicates dissolved calcium and magnesium essential for fish health
- Carbonate hardness (KH) buffers pH, preventing harmful fluctuations
- Both parameters are vital for maintaining stable, natural aquarium conditions
Use the API GH & KH Hardness Test Kit to ensure your aquarium water supports thriving aquatic life and long-term stability.
