Healthy aquarium with natural conditions
The correct water values in the aquarium depend on the fish stock and the plants present. Even if the water looks clear, it may be contaminated. If the values are poor, diseases or algae can form in the aquarium. For a healthy aquarium with natural conditions, regular monitoring and adjustment of the water parameters is important.
For every water analysis, JBL offers water tests in the form of quick tests or color change tests. These determine a specific value or several values at the same time. With these water tests, algae problems can be identified and negative nitrate, nitrite, potassium, magnesium, etc. values can be detected. be determined.
Maintaining a suitable pH value as consistently as possible is an important prerequisite for the well-being of the aquarium inhabitants and the prosperity of the aquatic plants. In addition, many substances dissolved in water are subject to changes due to the pH value. In particular, pH value fluctuations should be avoided.
