Salifert Silicate Test Kit

Description: Silicate originates primarily from tap water or purified water when the RO (reverse osmosis) system or deionization unit is not functioning properly. Silicate not only promotes the growth of unwanted diatoms but can also block the absorption of essential trace elements such as vanadium and molybdenum.

Why choose this kit?

The Salifert Silicate Test Kit offers a highly sensitive and accurate method for measuring silicate levels in your aquarium. It allows for the rapid detection of water quality problems and enables action to be taken before diatomaceous algae proliferate.

Key advantages:

• Exceptional accuracy : Detects levels as low as 0.03 ppm SiO2
• Wide measuring range : From 0.03 to 30 ppm SiO2
• Ease of use : Fast and reliable results in a few simple steps
• Economical : Approximately 60 tests per kit
• Reef Safe : Does not disrupt the balance of your aquarium

Applications:

• RO/DI Water Quality Monitoring
• Early detection of filtration problems
• Prevention of diatom algae blooms
• Monitoring the effectiveness of water purification systems

Note: Silicate can be reduced using granular phosphate removers or liquid phosphate removers, which are also very effective against silicate.

With the Salifert Silicate Test Kit , you maintain optimal water quality and prevent silicate-related problems in your reef aquarium.
