• Typically 2–3 years when stored correctly (refer to packaging for expiry date)

Important Notes

• Ammonia is toxic to fish even at low concentrations
• Testing should be carried out immediately if fish show signs of stress
• For complete diagnosis, ammonia testing should be used alongside dissolved oxygen and pH measurement

Typical Applications

• Aquaculture ponds
• Fish farms
• Hatcheries
• Water quality troubleshooting
• Routine monitoring
