The Triton ICP-OES Test Kit revolutionized the reef-keeping hobby by bringing professional-grade laboratory analysis to the average hobbyist. Using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry, Triton analyzes your aquarium water for 36 different macro and trace elements with incredible precision. This test moves beyond the limitations of home titration kits, allowing you to identify toxic heavy metals, track essential trace element depletion, and maintain the exact water chemistry required for high-end coral husbandry.
The Triton ICP-OES test provides a comprehensive "blood test" for your aquarium, delivering data-driven insights to optimize coral health.
Analysis of 36 Elements: Measures everything from major elements like Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium to critical trace elements like Iodine, Manganese, and Vanadium.
Toxic Metal Detection: Identifies harmful levels of heavy metals such as Copper, Aluminum, and Tin that can lead to sudden coral bleaching or mysterious livestock losses.
RO/DI Water Testing: Each kit includes a second vial to test your source water, ensuring your filtration system is actually producing 0 TDS water free of silicates and contaminants.
Actionable Results: Your online dashboard provides clear "red/yellow/green" status indicators and exact dosing recommendations to bring your parameters back to natural seawater levels.
Track Trends Over Time: The Triton portal stores your historical data, allowing you to visualize how your tank’s chemistry changes and how it responds to different salt brands or supplements.
How do I perform the test? Simply fill the two provided vials—one with your aquarium water and one with your RO/DI source water. Register the barcode on the Triton website and mail the samples to the designated lab using the included packaging.
How long does it take to get results? Once the lab receives your sample, results are typically processed and uploaded to your online account within 48 to 72 hours.
Is this test suitable for freshwater? While primarily used by reef keepers, the ICP-OES technology works for any water sample. However, the Triton "Success" recommendations are specifically calibrated for natural seawater parameters.
What elements are measured? The test covers a wide array, including Na, Ca, Mg, K, Sr, B, Li, Be, Ba, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Al, Si, As, Sb, Sn, Cd, Se, Mo, Hg, P (PO4), Pb, I, and more.
Triton Core 7 Base Elements: The essential four-part dosing system designed to maintain the balance found in your ICP-OES results.
Triton Trace Base Supplements: Individual trace elements (like Manganese or Zinc) used to correct the specific deficiencies identified by your test.
Triton Detox: A specialized treatment to remove heavy metals if your ICP test reveals toxic levels of Copper or Tin.
