The Nitrate Pro Test kit tests for Nitrate levels as part of the Algae Management stage of Red Sea's Reef Care Program. Red Sea's Nitrate Pro test kit works to an accrucy of 0.12 ppm and when used with the Phosphate pro test kit enables very accurate dosing of Red Sea's NO3 P04 X Which is a biological Nitrate and phosphate reducer.
When nitrate and phosphate levels are high it causes a growth of unsightly algae and an in balance between the zooxanthellae algae and the coral for the now abundance of available resorces, causeing the zooanthellae algaes population to explode. Zooanthellae is a type algae that lives in the soft tissue of all corals part of a symbiotic relationship. This results in corals becoming dark in colour and will eventually cause harm. Further more if nitrate levels are high it can cause nitrate toxicity resulting in unhealthy fish that will be susceptible to disease. So keeping your Nitate and Phospate levels low maintains the balance you need for vivid looking corals and healthy fish.
The ideal Nitrate level goes as followed,
Fish and soft corals, between 2.5 ppp and 1.0ppm
LPS and SPS, 0.25 ppm
