Overview
The Salifert Nitrite Test is a precision test kit used to measure nitrite levels in marine and reef aquariums, an important parameter to track particularly during tank cycling or after any disruption to your biological filtration.
Nitrite is toxic to fish at even fairly low concentrations, so accurate testing during cycling or after a filter clean-out is essential to know when it's safe to add livestock.
Key features
- Precision titration-based test for accurate nitrite readings
- Salifert's reagent-based testing, well regarded in the hobby for accuracy
- Compact kit suited to regular use
Who it's for
Anyone cycling a new tank, or monitoring nitrite after a filter media clean or other disruption to biological filtration — relevant to any tank size.
Setup & tips
- Test regularly during the cycling period until nitrite reads consistently at zero
- Follow the reagent steps precisely and in order for an accurate result
- Store reagents according to the kit's instructions to preserve shelf life
- Retest promptly after any major water quality event
