The alkalinity should be tested in all aquariums regularly. If the alkalinity in the aquarium is too low, the pH value can sink (sudden drop in acidity) to a level which is life-threatening for many fish and invertebrates. In reef aquariums, an adequate alkalinity is essential for strong coral growth. On the other hand, an overly high alkalinity in saltwater tanks can lead to lime precipitates and also have a negative impact on coral growth.

Dip the syringe into the liquid before drawing up the syringe. Shake the bottles before use! Rinse out the glass cuvette with tap water and then several times with aquarium water. Fill the glass cuvette with exactly 5 ml of aquarium water using the dosing syringe. Then add 3 drops of reagent A and swirl the cuvette carefully. The water sample will turn turquoise. Place the enclosed dropper tip on the small syringe and draw out 1 ml reagent B. Add reagent B from the syringe to the water sample drop by drop until the water changes color from turquoise to dark-blue then to a clear pink color. Swirl the cuvette after each new drop. The measurement is complete when the sample has reached a clear pink color without any blue tinge. The consumption of reagent B (difference of 1 ml) multiplied by 10 constitutes the alkalinity in degreedH. Rinse out the glass cuvette, the syringe and the dropper tip thoroughly with tap water after the measurement process.
Keep away from heat, hot surfaced and open flames since product has flammable liquid.

I have recently used medication in my 50 gal freshwater fish tank with one 22 year old comet goldfish in it . the meds cured my fish but must have killed my beneficial Bacteria as now my established tank has been going through another nitrogen cycle. It's been four weeks now the ammonia us back to zero so is nitrite zero BUT my nitrates are now spiked about 80 and the water is cloudy. Did 2 partial water changes over the last 8 days. Will a UV sterilizer help ?? Please advise. Thanks Lina

Most people don’t have the money and space to run a quarantine tank. When introducing new fish (without visible ich spots) could I assume that there are ich tomites. Could I do an ich treatment and prevent a full outbreak. ( I have just been through an outbreak and lost all my fish.)
Took my 1 yr old male cat Bailey to vet for not seeing him pee that much. She inserted him and got some urine (said he had a little crust down there, not sure what she meant but he does sit on litter). Sample showed no crystals or blood but his ph level was 8, which she said could have been from eating 2 hours prior. I know ph should be at least a 6, how can i help get it to that? I did buy some bladder support powder from Mercola pets and i put a small ice cube in his food. Thank you.
Hello, my dog’s wellness blood work and urinalysis results just came back. He has a pH of 8.5 on his urinalysis. Is this something to be concerned about?
