Description

If you are looking to test your ammonia—a couple of examples of this would be if you are doing a fishless cycle or adding new live critters to your tank—then the API Ammonia Test Kit is the best choice. It includes two testing solutions with child-resistant capped bottles, one test tube with a snap-tight cap, two color cards to compare your results, and easy-to-read instructions. We also appreciate that the instructions advise how to correct your water should your results be unfavorable. Is it correct for the #2 bottle in the API AMMONIA TEST KIT to have a slightly bigger hole in the spout than the #1 does? I’m concerned my test kit isn’t accurate because of this.

The Hanna Instruments-3824 ammonia test kit determines the ammonia concentration in water in several easy steps. The Nessler reagent reacts with ammonia, under strong alkaline conditions, to form a yellow coloured complex. Khoja S et al.

The supplied stabiliser solution is used with some waters where the calcium and magnesium concentrations causes cloudiness of the reagent. Adding a few drops of the stabiliser solution (Rochelle Salt) will prevent this cloudiness. References recommend distilling samples prior to analysis. Results are expressed as ppm (mg/l) ammonia-nitrogen, NH 3-N.

No smoking. This Spectroquant® Ammonium Reagent Test allows the cyanide-free quantification of ammonium in wastewater, groundwater, surface water, and seawater. Typically, ammonium enters water sources as runoff from fertilized agricultural areas and enhanced levels are important indicators for fecal pollution. When considering a test kit, make sure it gives results that are appropriate for your system. Nitrate levels, for instance, should test at very low levels in saltwater tanks, whereas some freshwater systems can have higher levels. Testing for low levels of nitrate would be appropriate for one system and not as critical for the other.

The AquaCare Ammonia test has been specifically designed for the potential use of first-time fishkeepers meaning that the tests are easy to carry out and understand. Take a 5 ml sample of aquarium water into the test tube. Add 5 drops of the reagent Ammonia 1 and 5 drops of Ammonia 2 and 5 drops of Ammonia 3. Replace the test tube cap and mix. Wait 10 minutes, and then compare the colour of the sample to the colour scale provided. Zero ammonia is represented by a yellow colour. Any hint of green in the sample indicates the presence of ammonia.

At physiological pH, nearly all ammonia will exist as ammonium in solution. P280: Wear protective gloves/ protective clothing/ eye protection/ face protection/ hearing protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

In the ammonia test method that employs the Hydroxybenzyl Alcohol chemistry, free ammonia reacts with hypochlorite to form monochloramine. Monochloramine reacts with HBA, in the presence of sodium nitroferricyanide, to form a green coloured complex. This test method measures the sum of free ammonia and monochloramine. Results are expressed in ppm (mg/l) ammonia-nitrogen, NH 3-N. Analytics and Sample Preparation > Test Kits and Photometric Methods > Areas of Application > Agriculture > Ammonium Analytics and Sample Preparation > Test Kits and Photometric Methods > Areas of Application > Beverages > Ammonium When the pH is low, the reaction is driven to the right, and when the pH is high, the reaction is driven to the left. In general, at around room temperature, at a pH less than 6.0, the proportion of ammonium-N plus ammonia-N as NH3 is very low and as NH4+ is very high. At a pH around 8.0 (the ammonia assay buffer pH), the proportion as NH3 is 10 percent or less. When ammonia is not used for disinfection, its presence in a distribution system may indicate leaching from materials used in the pipework construction or water contamination, due to damage in the system. When unwanted ammonia combines with chlorine, it diminishes the disinfection strength of chlorination. Chloramination

Ammonia exists in water as either the ammonium ion (NH 4 +) or the non-ionized ammonia (NH 3). Non-ionized ammonia is toxic to fish, while the ammonium ion is non-toxic, except at extremely high concentrations. At neutral pH 7 and ambient temperature, almost all the ammonia exists as NH 4 +. As the pH and temperature increase, the amount of NH 3 increases and the amount of NH 4 + decreases. Reference: ASTM D 1426-08, Ammonia Nitrogen in Water, Test Method A. APHA Standard Methods, 18th ed., Method 4500-NH3 C – 1988. Ammonia is an inorganic form of nitrogen that contains hydrogen. It is a plant nutrient often found naturally in water at low levels due to the decomposition of organic matter. When ammonia levels range too high, it usually signals contamination stemming from raw sewage, industrial effluents (particularly petroleum refineries), or fertilizer runoff. Total ammonia is the sum of both NH 3 (ammonia, the un-ionized form) and NH 4 + (ammonium, the ionized form). Total ammonia is what is measured analytically in water. Ammonia toxicity is influenced by pH and temperature. As pH or temperature increases, NH 4 + is converted to NH 3, and the toxicity also increases. The test measures both ammonium ions and dissolved ammonia in e.g. groundwater and surface water, seawater, drinking water and aquarium water. The test kit contains the easy to use colour card.

Applications

If you want to go further, there are test kits that also evaluate water hardness, copper, iron, phosphate, and other water chemistries, but these extra tests might be more complication than you need. Since it can test for 2 to 14 mg/L, it’s a great option for looking at lower oxygen levels, which can happen as tank temperatures warm or equipment is being swapped out. While it may seem like a lower-range test kit, even if you maxout the test, your levels are still safe. Overall, this is a reliable option that’s readily available in many local pet stores and online retailers. When the concentration of ammonia is high enough, it can alter the smell and taste of water. In industrial applications, high concentrations of ammonia can cause corrosion in pipes. The product remains your responsibility until it is delivered and signed for by us. You will bear the cost of returning the product to us as well as the original cost to us of sending the product to you. Saltwater tanks are typically fussier about their water quality levels, and the Salifert Master Reef Testing Combo Kit contains all the elements you need to keep an eye on things. A bit more expensive than other test kits on the market, this combo includes 50 to 100 calcium tests, 100 to 200 carbonate alkalinity tests, 60 phosphate tests, 50 magnesium tests, 60 nitrate tests, and 50 pH tests. Calcium, magnesium, phosphate, and carbonate alkalinity tests are especially important for monitoring corals. The tools you’ll find in each kit vary between syringes, spoons, testing vials, plastic tips, and a chart to find your reading.
