FAQs

How often should I test my aquarium water?

Test every 2-3 days in new aquariums and once a week in established aquariums.

How do I use the Tetra Water Care App?

Download the app on your smartphone or tablet, enter the results from your test strips, and the app will provide a treatment plan and allow you to set reminders.

What do the different parameters (pH, KH, GH, NO2, NO3, Cl2) mean?

pH indicates acidity, KH affects pH stability, GH influences fish health, NO2 should be near zero, NO3 indicates water freshness, and Cl2 indicates chlorine content.

What if my test results are outside the recommended ranges?

Consult the Tetra Water Care App or research the specific parameters and what they mean to your fish species.

How long do the test strips last?

Each pack contains 25 test strips. However, the strips have an expiration date, so check the package.

Can I use these test strips for saltwater aquariums?

No, these test strips are designed for freshwater aquariums only.

Where can I find the color chart?

The color chart is printed directly on the test strip container packaging.

Ensure good lighting and compare the colors to the chart carefully. Compare the colors at eye level.
