MultiTest Ammonia Seachem is a test kit that allows for precise measurement of free ammonia (NH3) and total ammonia (NH3 + NH4+) in marine or freshwater aquariums. It enables detection below 0.05 mg/L and is based on gas exchange sensor technology.
Test type: free ammonia (NH3) and total ammonia (NH3 + NH4+).
Measurement range: below 0.05 mg/L.
Compatibility: marine aquarium and freshwater aquarium.
Number of tests: more than 75 tests per kit.
Technology: gas exchange sensors.
Simultaneous use: up to 6 tests in parallel.
This test specifically monitors free ammonia, the toxic form of ammonia, without being affected by the use of conditioners or neutralizing products. Unlike traditional tests, it does not cause the release of bound ammonia during measurement.
It can be used continuously, even in aquariums treated with ammonia detoxification products.
MultiTest Ammonia uses the same sensor technology as permanent monitoring systems based on gas exchange. This method provides reliable readings of free ammonia, even in the presence of neutralizing products that are usually incompatible with salicylate or Nessler tests.
