Red Sea Marine Care (MCP) Nitrite & Nitrate Test Kit

Overview

Monitor two critical parameters with one reliable kit. Red Sea’s Marine Care (MCP) Nitrite & Nitrate Test Kit provides easy, color-based testing to track the nitrogen cycle during tank start-up and to manage nutrient levels long-term. Clear reagents, durable glass vials, and an intuitive color chart make results fast to read and repeatable—ideal for fish-only, mixed reef, and coral-heavy systems.

Key Features

• Two-in-One Testing – Measures both nitrite (NO₂⁻) and nitrate (NO₃⁻) for complete nitrogen-cycle visibility.

• Reef-Friendly Resolution – Low-range sensitivity helps detect early spikes that can stress corals and inverts.

• Easy Color Matching – High-contrast chart and step-by-step procedure minimize guesswork.

• Consistent, Repeatable Results – Precise droppers and stable reagents support dependable readings over time.

• Great for Cycling & Maintenance – Track nitrite to confirm biological maturation; monitor nitrate to guide water changes, filtration, or carbon dosing.

• Quality Components – Includes glass vials with tight-sealing caps, reagent set, and printed instructions in multiple languages.

Product Specifications
