Seachem MultiTest Ammonia is a sensitive aquarium test kit designed to measure ammonia in both freshwater and marine aquariums. It is particularly useful for monitoring new aquarium cycles, checking biological filtration performance, and identifying potentially dangerous ammonia spikes before they become a serious problem.
Unlike many basic ammonia tests, MultiTest Ammonia can distinguish between free ammonia (NH₃) and total ammonia, giving you a clearer picture of the ammonia present in your aquarium.

Why Test Ammonia?
Ammonia is produced from fish waste, uneaten food, and decomposing organic matter. In a mature aquarium, beneficial bacteria should process ammonia efficiently, so detectable levels can indicate that the aquarium is still cycling or that the biological filter is under stress.
