Phosphates are an important food component of all plants and absolutely necessary for the metabolism of every living cell. If the plants do not take up enough phosphate, then the equilibrium of the phosphate cycle is disturbed. The result is powerful algae growth and a growth impediment of stony corrals. With this test, the phosphate concentration can be determined from 0.03 to 3 mg/l with the help of the color chart.

The test reagents are sufficient for approx. 30 tests.

Tropic Marin Water Test Kits are the result of intensive research and development - directed at the needs of the serious aquarist. Extensive testing has been completed to assure accuracy and reliability.

Tropic Marin tests are quick and easy to use. The kits contain glass vials, dosage syringes and recommendations to optimize the water quality.
