Salifert Copper Profi Test Kit – Sensitive Heavy Metal Monitoring

The Salifert Copper Profi Test Kit is perfect for monitoring copper levels within your aquarium. It is highly sensitive and will detect even the smallest amounts easily. Copper is often a key ingredient in treatments and medications, but it is vital to ensure concentrations are not too heavy, as copper can be toxic to both marine fish and invertebrates.

Post-Treatment Safety and Tap Water Testing

This kit allows you to verify if copper still exists in your system following a cure or if it is entering your tank through external sources.

Medication Monitoring: Check copper levels after using medications to ensure they have returned to safe parameters.
Mains Water Safety: Tap water can contain large amounts of copper and other heavy metals; use this kit to test mains water during routine water changes.
Test Requirements: For accurate results, the pH value must be between pH 7.5 and 9.0 during the test.
Capacity: Each kit contains approximately 50 tests.
