Questions
What changes color? The yellow in the middle?
- Yes. the yellow would start turning blue if ammonia is present.

Ok I have a 55 gallon tank and I've always had small tanks recently I decided one 55 gallon is good enough and I have never had a master kit should I start there 1st
- I would absolutely start with an API master kit. Make sure you get the correct kit for your water type. They have a freshwater, saltwater, and pond test kit. Even experienced aquarists use the kit. It is worth every penny.

Can this be used to detect ammonia in dog urine? I want to use in my kennel.
- I wouldn't think so. It has to be immersed in water to detect ammonia in the water. I've tested this in pure ammonia just to make sure it does give an alert. If it could be activated by the presence of ammonia in the air, it would have turned color before I immersed it in the ammonia. However, if you collected the dog urine in a receptacle and placed the alert in that, I'm sure it would work.
