Iron Test

THE JBL PROAQUATEST Iron is an essential tool for any aquaponic/aquarist, allowing precise control of iron levels in fresh or salt water. Iron is an essential nutrient for plant growth, and an imbalance can cause deficiencies, yellowing of leaves, or even algae blooms.

This water test uses a reliable colorimetric comparison system, taking into account the natural color of the water to provide clear results, even under complex conditions (presence of tannins, dark substrates, etc.).
