Do You Need AquariumWaterTesting.com?
- Have you invested a small fortune in aquarium gear?
- Do you own a calcium reactor, kalkwasser system, nitrate reducer, automated dosing or top-off system?
If you answered yes, it will have been because you have recognized the value of stability in a marine aquarium system. You try to replace the major and trace elements that your corals deplete, you try to mitigate the accumulation of waste that your fish contribute and you automate your top-off routine to maintain a consistent salinity. Why? Well, because these captive reef systems respond to consistency and stability with an overall vibrancy that can otherwise be elusive. You can actually see the difference and so you have invested in the gear necessary to provide that stability while freeing you as much as possible from the tedious rigors that can accompany this level of attention.
We imagine then that you would immediately see the value of receiving regular precise measurements of the essential water quality parameters that you are continually working to adjust, optimize and stabilize. How do you decide what adjustments to make to your calcium reactor or nitrate reducer? How do you decide how much iodine or molybdenum to dose? Wouldn’t your process for making these weekly decisions change dramatically if you knew the concentration of that parameter down to the thousandths of a milligram per liter? And if you had precise data from weeks past couldn’t you begin to accurately evaluate the effectiveness of your routines and regiment? Home test kits are expensive, messy, toxic, and time consuming. They just don’t have the accuracy to provide you with a meaningful stream of data and most of us find them too complex to perform regularly.
For as little as $1.34 per test you, as a subscriber, can finally get the maximum value out of the thousands of dollars worth of equipment your system employs and make the most of the time you spend nurturing it.
