Why a TDS Meter is Essential
In an aquarium, water quality is everything. A TDS meter is the perfect tool that helps you monitor contaminants such as salts, minerals, and metals that could be harmful to your fish.
High TDS levels can indicate overstocking, improper filtration, or failure to maintain proper water changes. By using a TDS meter, you ensure you’re providing the cleanest, safest environment for your fish.
How to Use a TDS Meter Effectively
Using a TDS meter is pretty straightforward. Simply dip the probe into your tank’s water and wait for the reading. A healthy freshwater tank will generally have a TDS reading below 500 ppm, while saltwater tanks will vary based on the salt mix.
Regular testing, especially during water changes, ensures your fish are living in a balanced environment.
