API Ammonia Test Kit for Aquarium, 1 Piece

Its a must have for all fish keepers.

Good

After doing to much research and i will decide to buy API . Now after use i will this really value for money and the test is really accurate as i tested in multiple water ... Best this is that i got 2025 expiry date so this was the fantastic thing .. really good product for fish kippers..

This is a good product to use when you are new to the hobby. Product is little costly but may be worth the price.

Great product but can get it cheaper with other brands. Unless you are brand conscious it’s expensive

After doing the test it's not working and showing wrong outcomes. In my tank, there is no ammonia but it is showing high ammonia.

The kit is very easy to use and it only takes 5 minutes. I am not sure on how it works but I am believing in the kit being able to identify if there is excess ammonia. The good thing is that everything that you need for doing the test is there. A test-tube with a marking for how much water to be filled. A cap for the testtube. The two liquids are marked correctly (both the bottles are child-protected for opening). They have also supplied 2 calibrated color Cards with which you can match your water color to identify the amount of Ammonia (the 2 cards are one for fresh water and another for salt water). I think it doesn't get better than this. That said, for the real fanatics, they have included a small folded paper manual on exactly how to drop the 8 drops, how much to shake etc., :)

good product to monitor the ammonia in your tank .

Truly a necessity, I'm doing a fish in cycle and have had the tank going for about a week now and my ammonia just tested to around 4 (really bad), did a 70% change and got it down to 1-2 and will continue doing small changes until my tank is cycled. My fish and snail were acting perfectly normal too so it was definitely a surprise!

Excellent product

Amazing bit of kit. Fish keepers must!

I worked in three pet shops as a teen and later managed the salt water department in a very large pet shop in Philadelphia. I have kept fish since I was five years old but have been on hiatus for the past 20 years and not had any tanks. These kits have been around for ages and are very accurate if you use them for their true intended purpose; freshwater community tanks or similar. Don't try and use the nitrite or ammonia for saltwater tanks of any sort (even though the kits say the can do salt water, they don’t do it well). Don't use the pH test kit for tanks that need exact pH values for high pH animals like cichlids (though this is less of a problem if you read below). These tests are extremely economical and provide many more tests per dollar than any other kits available. My son is six and my daughter is four. We decided to raise tadpoles twice this year and needed to monitor ammonia, nitrite, and pH. The 40-ish year old design of these kits still fit that bill perfectly and were exactly what we needed. I wish the scale on the pH kit went higher, but it goes high enough for community fish. Tadpoles here tend to like higher pH values of ~8.2 and the pH kit doesn't go that high. However, I got a rough enough estimate if the pH test indicated that the pH was off the chart high as water isn't going to go much above 8.2 unless you use chemicals inappropriately to alter ph. Ammonia and nitrite test kits worked perfectly as in the past and averted many potential tadpole disasters and crying children. We've kept snails, clams, some minnows, and loads of plants in the tank while the tadpoles have developed so the bio load was always changing. Still great kits even after 40 years at a very affordable price. Highly recommended for their intended usage scenario.
