Product Description

The DiscuSoft tester is specially designed to indicate water softness in the fresh water aquarium. Water softness is an important parameter for certain tropical fishes especially the Cichlid family, Cardinal tetras, etc. Although these fishes can survive well in hard water, they cannot breed in such environments.

Discus, for example, is one such fish that requires soft water to breed and spawn. Concentrations of below 100µS or about 3-15 dH water hardness are most suitable. The success and pride of an aquarist is to see their prized fish breed and multiply in their aquarium!

Apart from breeding concerns, there are other benefits of controlling water softness. When water is hard, it could mean chemical or waste loading in the water is increasing, which is the cause of cloudy water. This results in an unnatural and hostile environment for the fish.
