We use spectrophotometry, auto-titration, and specialized ion specific probes to deliver a level of accuracy 100 to 1000 times greater than that of home testing procedures.

Aquarium Water Testing - FAQ

Do you have a service for freshwater tanks?
At the moment we do not, but we are hard at work developing a truly meaningful panel of test parameters and insights for freshwater enthusiasts. If you are keeping live plants and dosing supplements and fertilizers you should find this service invaluable. Keep an eye on this site for more details.

Why can't I purchase or subscribe on-line with an address outside the US?
One of the best parts of our service is the simplicity of this process for our customers. A big part of that is the pre-paid Sample Submission Pack. USPS allows us to offer everyone in the US the same price because Priority shipping prices are the same for all domestic addresses. We would love to provide you with an equivalent level of convenience and expediency. Just drop us an e-mail, including your address, to the e-mail box below and we will customize a package or subscription solution for you.

Why don't you test for PH?
pH is the only parameter of significant interest that is not included in our panel because it is subject to change between your house and our lab. pH is also one of the few key parameters that can be tested at home quite easily with sufficient accuracy. pH pens and other electronic pH probe and meter sets are a great way to monitor pH.
