Hanna Instruments Marine Alkalinity Checker® HC Reagents for HI772 (25 Tests) (HI772-26)

Marine Alkalinity Checker® HC Reagents for HI772 (25 Tests) by Hanna Instruments is a reagent kit specifically designed for use with the HI772 Marine Alkalinity Checker HC. This set includes enough reagents to perform up to 25 individual tests, allowing saltwater aquarium hobbyists to monitor alkalinity levels with accuracy and consistency.

Alkalinity is a crucial parameter in marine aquariums, playing a key role in stabilizing pH and supporting the health of corals, fish, and invertebrates. Maintaining appropriate dKH levels helps prevent sudden shifts in water chemistry, which can be harmful to sensitive reef systems. With these reagents, users can perform precise, digital measurements and avoid the subjectivity of color comparison test kits.

Using the HI772-26 Marine Alkalinity Checker® HC Reagents is straightforward. Begin by filling the provided cuvette with 10 ml of aquarium water and insert it into the HI772 Checker to zero the instrument. Remove the cuvette, open one packet of reagent, add the contents to the water sample, and gently swirl to mix. Reinsert the cuvette into the Checker, and in a matter of seconds, the digital screen will display the alkalinity reading in dKH.

Keeping a steady supply of these reagents is essential for anyone relying on the HI772 Checker as part of their aquarium maintenance routine. The pre-measured packets ensure accuracy in every test and eliminate the risk of dosing errors. Having these reagents on hand allows for regular, uninterrupted monitoring, which is key to identifying trends and adjusting dosing schedules accordingly.

With Hanna Instruments HI772-26, aquarists can confidently measure and maintain proper alkalinity levels, making it an indispensable tool for achieving long-term stability and success in any saltwater or reef aquarium system.
