API Nitrite NO₂ Test Kit – 180 Tests
The API Nitrite NO₂ Test Kit is a vital tool for monitoring nitrite buildup in aquariums and ponds. Nitrite is a toxic intermediate in the nitrogen cycle, produced by nitrifying bacteria as they break down ammonia. Even low levels can inhibit respiration and weaken fish immunity, while high levels may cause suffocation. This kit provides accurate readings from 0 to 5.0 ppm and is suitable for both freshwater and marine environments.

- Performs up to 180 tests per kit
- Safe for use in freshwater and saltwater aquariums
- Helps prevent fish stress, disease, and mortality
Applications:
Ideal for tank cycling, aquaculture systems, biofloc setups, and routine aquarium maintenance. Recommended for hobbyists, breeders, and aquatic professionals.
