Hanna Instruments Marine Coral Care Kit

  • Includes: Alkalinity, Calcium, and Magnesium Hanna Checkers
  • Ideal for Any Saltwater Aquarium with Coral
  • Easy-to-Read Digital Test Results
  • Simple One-Button Design

 

This bundle includes the Marine Calcium (HI758), Alkalinity (HI772), and Magnesium (HI783) Checkers plus the required reagents to perform 25 tests each.

In a reef tank, maintaining stable calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels is essential for coral health, skeletal growth, and overall stability. The Hanna Marine Coral Care Kit combines three of the most accurate and user-friendly digital checkers, taking the guesswork out of reef chemistry. Designed for hobbyists who want dependable results without the hassle of titration testing or subjective color charts, Hanna Checkers are a go-to testing option with less chance for user error. Each Checker features a simple one-button operation and a digital readout that eliminates the need to interpret color changes. This makes them ideal for reefers of all experience levels and especially handy for those who are color blind. 

Testing Tips:

  • Always ensure the sample is free of debris before testing.
  • Never rinse cuvettes with tap water or tank water. Use RO/DI water to prevent contamination.
  • Use clean, dry cuvettes for every test. The outside of the cuvette must be completely dry and free of fingerprints, oil, or dirt before inserting it into the checker.
  • Wipe the cuvette thoroughly using a lint-free cloth prior to testing.
  • Avoid shaking the cuvette, as this can create bubbles that may lead to falsely high readings. Instead, swirl gently or tap lightly to release any trapped air bubbles.
  • Do not let the reacted sample sit too long after adding the reagent, as this may affect the accuracy of the results.
  • Discard the sample immediately after the reading. Leaving the solution in the cuvette can stain the glass and compromise future tests.
