The Tetra Nitrate Liquid Test Kit reads parameters from 0 to 160 ppm.
High nitrate levels in your pond indicate a build-up of fish waste and organic compounds, resulting in poor water quality and an increase in algae growth.
High nitrate is harmful to fish, but is significantly less toxic than ammonia or nitrite. Effects of high nitrate levels are more gradual if parameters go untreated – fish will eventually lose their appetite and grow sluggish and inactive over time.
