Salifert Nitrite ProfiTest kit

Introducing the Salifert Nitrite ProfiTest Kit, a user-friendly and reliable tool for testing nitrite levels in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums. This kit is designed to provide accurate results in minutes, helping aquarium enthusiasts maintain a healthy environment for their aquatic life.

With its high sensitivity, the Salifert Nitrite ProfiTest Kit can detect even the smallest changes in nitrite levels, making it an essential tool for proactive aquarium management. The kit comes with clear instructions and all necessary components included, ensuring easy use for all users.

In a properly cycled aquarium, nitrite is converted to nitrate and then, if there are areas deprived of oxygen such as in live rock and other filter materials, this nitrate is converted back to nitrite and then transformed into harmless nitrogen gas. However, if this cycle breaks down, nitrites, which are extremely toxic to fish and invertebrates, can form in high concentration.

Many nitrite test kits suffer from interference caused by amines e.g naturally occurring and essential amino acids. This can result in a too low measured value, especially when the nitrite concentration is relatively low. The Salifert Test Kit, with its unique formulation, does not suffer from amine interference, and offers full colour development within one minute. The colour is very intense, making the detection of even minute traces of nitrite easy.

The test kit has two different scales: an ultra-low scale for nitrite-nitrogen which ranges from 0.002 - 0.12 mg/L, and a medium scale for nitrite-nitrogen which ranges from 0.02 - 1.2 mg/L. This makes it a versatile tool for different aquarium conditions.

Each Salifert Nitrite ProfiTest Kit is sufficient for 50 tests, providing long-lasting value for aquarium hobbyists.
