NYOS is a progressive brand of marine aquarium products which has recently与Ecotech Marine合作在海洋水族馆业余爱好的美国一侧闯入。这海洋水族馆测试套件的简历线are some of NYOS’s signature aquarium products, and we recently got our hands on the full line to “test the test kits”.
NYOS将其套件描述为易于使用，具有实验室质量结果，标准的盐水水族馆业余爱好者负担得起。NYOS套件是严格批量进行的，以免妥协准确性和质量控制。
首先，我们选择审查硝酸盐套件，因为我们以前曾审查过专业的NYOS硝酸盐套件早在2012年。硝酸是一个很好的指标overall water quality, you will want to keep your nitrates low to keep your aquarium sps corals and fish happy.
这test instructions for the Nitrate test are easy to follow both from the pictogram instruction on the back of the booklet, and the written instructions in the book. You can also watch this简短的教学视频which shows how to perform the tests. The test bottles were also simply labeled with the numerical order they are used, and the quantity required for each test. The written instructions come in six languages, German, English, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch.
NYOS硝酸盐测试试剂盒具有足够的试剂来执行40个单独的测试，并且具有10个黄色的测量量表，从0到160 ppm。我们喜欢测量量表被打印为贴纸，因此您可以将背部剥落并粘在任何平坦的表面上。该套件还配备了两瓶溶液，两个小瓶，一个注射器和测量汤匙。
A major plus for the Reefer line is that all components are made in Germany in accordance with German test and regulatory standards including the reagents and droppers, and the test droppers have been specifically calibrated to ensure uniform drops during all tests. We did the test several times and can agree this was the case.
添加试剂（第2部分）后，测试需要五分钟才能在结果之前。阅读该值的唯一挑战是确定结果的精确读数，我们发现了两者之间的黄色橙色颜色，因此我们只使用中间值。
NYOS硝酸盐套件易于使用，从头到尾只花了大约八分钟。我们真的很喜欢测试套件的简单两个步骤过程，以及指示图表中的各种颜色，并将继续在我们的家庭水族馆中使用它。
Next up we took the NYOS Phosphate kit for a spin. As with the previous Nitrate test, the instructions were easy to follow, both from the pictogram instruction on the back of the booklet, and the written instructions in the book. You can also watch this简短的教学视频which shows how to perform the tests.
这NYOS Phosphate test kit has enough reagents to perform 50 individual tests, and a measurement scale with 10 shades of blue from 0.025 to 1.0 ppm. The NYOS phosphate test kit is very practical for basic measurements of phosphate, although we find it quite hard to distinguish between values of PO4 between 0.0 and 0.1 ppm of phosphate. However, if your phosphates are below 0.10 ppm, you don’t really have anything to worry about.
该测试需要20毫升的盐水（测试10毫升，对照为10），该测试需要在第2部分试剂添加到测试小瓶后需要10分钟。我们喜欢易于遵循两个步骤的过程，并且聪明的想法只为玻璃测试瓶中只有1个盖帽，而没有盖子的奶油奶瓶。
这NYOS Phosphate test kit was easy to use and we really like the simple two step process. The test results were easy to read and replicated twice with the same results. The whole like of NYOS Reefer kits are now available in the USA and can be orderedhere。[NYOS]
