Customer Questions & Answers

  • Question : Can these strips be used for both saltwater and freshwater aquariums?
    Answer : Yes, API 5-in-1 TEST STRIPS can be used for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums.
  • Question : How often should these strips be used?
    Answer : These strips should be used for weekly monitoring and whenever water or fish problems appear.
  • Question : Are these strips easy to use?
    Answer : Yes, just dip the strip directly into the aquarium and use the color-coded chart to determine if adjustments are needed. It's that simple.
  • Question : Does this detect different types of ammonia?
    Answer : No, it doesn't differentiate between NH3 and NH4. Liquid tests are more accurate.
  • Question : Do these work in coldwater tanks?
    Answer : Yes, they work in both coldwater tanks and tropical fish tanks.
  • Question : Can I trust this test?
    Answer : Based on personal experience, there have been noticeable color changes on the strip before tank filter clean.
  • Question : Does it test for ammonia?
    Answer : No, it doesn't test for ammonia. It tests for nitrite (NO2) and nitrate (NO3) levels.
  • Question : How many strips are in the pack?
    Answer : There are 25 test strips in each pack.
  • Question : Is this suitable for small marine tanks?
    Answer : No, it is not recommended. It is inaccurate for marine tanks, and it's better to use a liquid master test kit.
  • Question : What should the readings be for a normal tropical tank?
    Answer : Nitrites should be zero, nitrates should be below 40 (preferably below 80). pH, GH, and KH levels depend on the species of fish.
  • Question : How do I test for alkaline levels?
    Answer : The pH level determines whether it is acidic or alkaline. The ideal level depends on the fish species being kept.

API 33G Aquarium Test Kits Editorial Review

This product is a 5 in 1 aquarium test strip kit that tests for nitrate, nitrite, general hardness, pH and carbonate hardness.

Some reviews suggest the strips run out quickly while others question their accuracy, but most comments praise the ease of use and readability. The absence of an ammonia testing strip is a noted concern. Overall, the product appears to provide an easy and quick testing option for aquarium water, but some customers have raised concerns about its accuracy and value for money.
