Large Water Profile

LABOKLIN Service ID: 1482

Material

500 ml water (cooled, if possible)

Parameter

pH, total hardness (fresh water), conductivity (salt water), carbonate hardness, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, copper, ammonium

Duration

1 day

Remark

  • Please indicate whether the sample is freshwater or saltwater.
  • Determination of the essential chemical water parameters of an aquarium/pond.
  • For clarification of intoxications, differential diagnosis if infectious fish diseases are suspected or for setting ideal husbandry/breeding conditions.
  • Assessment of the acid-base balance (e.g. pH, carbonate hardness), the organic load of the water (e.g. ammonium, nitrite, nitrate) and the purification capacity of the filter.
  • Determination of phosphate and copper is indicated in case of algae problems or suspected copper intoxication, especially in invertebrates.
