25, Mar 2025

Maintaining optimal water quality is paramount for the health and vitality of your aquarium’s inhabitants. The QUANTOFIX® Multistick offers a swift and reliable solution for assessing key water parameters, enabling proactive care for your aquatic ecosystem.

Comprehensive Water Quality Assessment

The QUANTOFIX® Multistick is designed to measure three critical parameters:

Total Hardness: Indicates the concentration of calcium and magnesium ions, essential for various biological processes.

Carbonate Hardness: Reflects the water’s buffering capacity, crucial for stabilizing pH levels.

pH Value: Determines the acidity or alkalinity of the water, affecting fish health and biological functions.

Regular monitoring of these parameters ensures a balanced environment, reducing stress and promoting the well-being of your aquatic pets.

Simple and Efficient Testing Procedure

The user-friendly design of the QUANTOFIX® Multistick allows for quick assessments:

  1. Dip: Immerse the test strip into the aquarium water for one second.
  2. Shake: Gently remove excess water by shaking the strip.
  3. Wait: Allow 60 seconds for the chemical reactions to occur.
  4. Compare: Match the test fields on the strip to the provided color scale to determine the values.

This rapid dip-and-read method delivers results in just one minute, facilitating timely interventions when necessary.

Optimal Parameter Ranges for a Healthy Aquarium

Maintaining water parameters within ideal ranges is essential:

Total Hardness: 5 to 10 °dH (degrees of German hardness)

Carbonate Hardness: 2 to 4 °dKH

pH Value: 6.4 to 6.9

Deviations from these ranges may necessitate adjustments. Consult with your local aquatic specialist for tailored advice.

Proper Storage for Consistent Accuracy

To ensure the longevity and reliability of your test strips:

Storage Conditions: Keep the container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.

Handling: Remove only the necessary number of strips, and immediately reseal the container to prevent exposure.

Adhering to these practices preserves the efficacy of the strips up to the expiration date indicated on the packaging.

The QUANTOFIX® Multistick empowers aquarium enthusiasts to maintain pristine water conditions effortlessly. By facilitating regular monitoring and prompt adjustments, it supports a thriving aquatic environment where your fish and plants can flourish.
