Colombo Quicktest 6 in 1 Teststrips

When something looks off in your pond, you don’t want to run six separate tests. A single dip can give you a broad picture of what’s happening in the water.

What it tests

Each strip measures six essential water values:

• pH
• KH (carbonate hardness)
• GH (general hardness)
• Nitrite (NO2)
• Nitrate (NO3)
• Chlorine

That covers the core chemistry affecting koi health, filter performance and water clarity.

Why it’s a good choice

• Six readings from one strip – quick overview of pond balance
• Dip-and-read format – no mixing or measuring liquids
• Ideal for regular weekly checks
• Suitable for garden ponds and freshwater systems

Perfect for busy pond keepers who want a fast snapshot before deciding if further testing is needed.

How to use

1. Dip a strip into pond water for the recommended time.
2. Remove and hold horizontally.
3. Wait for the colours to develop.
4. Compare to the colour chart on the pack.

Always follow the manufacturer’s timing instructions for accurate results.

When to use test strips

• As part of your weekly maintenance routine
• After water changes or top-ups
• When adding new fish
• If fish behaviour changes

Pro tip: Use 6 in 1 strips for regular monitoring, then switch to a liquid test kit if you need more precise readings for a specific parameter.
