Pure water is neutral and has a pH value of 7. If the acidic components outweigh the alkaline components, the pH value falls (pH \u0026lt; 7), if the alkaline components outweigh the acidic components, the pH value rises (pH \u0026gt;7). Many organisms are extremely sensitive to significant fluctuations in the pH value.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn saltwater aquariums, the optimum pH value range is between 8.0 and 8.5, as it is in the ocean. Significant fluctuations and overly sharp decreases or increases in the pH value should be avoided at all costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul style=\"list-style-type: square;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 ml \/ 0.34 fl.oz. of reagent pH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 glass cuvette 10 ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 dosing syringe 5 ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 colour card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 instructions for use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstructions For Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShake the dropper bottle before use!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRinse out the glass cuvette with tap water and then several times with aquarium water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFill the glass cuvette with exactly 5 ml of aquarium water using the dosing syringe.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd 1 drop of pH test reagent, close the glass cuvette using the stopper and briefly shake the solution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlace the glass cuvette on the white inner circles of the colour card and compare it to the surrounding colour fields.
