Marine Lab Marine Lab Nitrate Test 35 Tests from NT Labs
Nitrate is the waste product of naturally occurring bacteria (Nitrospira spp.) turning nitrite into relatively non-toxic nitrate.In a typical aquarium, nitrate is the final stage of nitrification and usually accumulates with time.
Invertebrates do not tolerate a high level of nitrate in a marine aquarium, so careful measurement is essential to keeping corals healthy.Nitrate is also the cause of many algae problems in a marine aquarium so monitoring and responding to nitrate can help reduce these algae issues.
In a reef aquarium, a concentration of under 10 mg/l is optimal for both coral growth and health.In a marine fish-only system, nitrate should not exceed 20 mg/l.Higher readings are unlikely to affect fish health, but it may promote excess algae growth.
Regular partial water changes with a good quality salt should be sufficient in maintaining low nitrate.Good aquarium hygiene, such as removing excessive waste from filters or sumps will also help to keep nitrate down to a minimum.Excessive feeding will also cause high nitrate, so ensure that fish are not overfed.
