These 7-in-1 water test strips let you check water quality in seconds. Dip one strip and compare the pad colours to the chart on the bottle. The strips read pH, hardness, alkalinity, chlorine, nitrate and nitrite, the main things that stress or kill fish. Fish farmers use them to spot problems early, check new borehole water and know when to change water. They also work for swimming pools and spas.
