1. Special Features of PACK CHECKER PH:
PACK CHECKER pH measures pH level of water with ease just by sucking up the aquarium water into it. Most of aquatic plants and tropical fishes like mildly acidic water with a low pH. The pH level of aquarium water varies due to factors such as water change, CO2 supply and photosynthesis of aquatic plants. Check the pH level as and when necessary, including when you add a fish to the aquarium.
4. Precautions for Measurement (hydrogen ion concentration):
•Dirty container or hand may give a big impact on the pH level of water. Make sure to measure the pH level in a clean environment.
•lf a half of the Packtube is not filled with water at one go, hold the Packtube with its opening facing up and let the air out. Then, suck the water again. The measured pH level may become more alkaline if the Packtube contains too little water or it may become more acidic if the water amount sucked is too much.
•NEVER release the reagent inside the Packtube into the aquarium water.
•The regent may remain undissolved inside the Packtube. It does not affect the test result.
•Test should be conducted within the water temperature range of 15-40°C
•Examine the color result under daylight. Examination could be difficult with some of fluorescent lamps and mercury lamp.
•Do not leave the used Packtube undisposed. Wrap it in paper and dispose as combustible waste.
•Once the laminated package is opened, use this product as early as possible. The reagent may deteriorate especially during summer and rainy season depending on storage conditions.
