Cascade Koi & Aquatics Have been selling and using NT Labs test kits for many years. Help keep your fish live in a safe environment with regular water testing.
Ammonia is excreted by the fish as a waste product. It is extremely toxic to the fish, and is broken down into less toxic nitrite by the beneficial bacteria in the filter of your aquarium. Ammonia is most toxic to fish when the pH is alkaline and temperature is high, so it is most dangerous in cichlid or marine aquariums. Any ammonia present in the aquarium water will cause major health problems for the fish. Toxic ammonia can build up in aquariums where there are not sufficient beneficial filter bacteria to deal with the total waste from all the fish in the aquarium. This situation can commonly arise in new aquariums, when new fish are added, when the filter bacteria have been disrupted (e.g during cleaning), or during accidental over dosing of aquarium medications. If a level of 0.2 mg/l (ppm) is recorded then add a filter booster such as Aquarium Filter Starter.  If you do record an ammonia level in your aquarium, then it is important to check other vital water quality parameters, especially pH and Nitrite.
