Why test Oxygen levels?
The well-being of aquarium and pond dwellers and the growth of aquatic plants depend to a large extent on the O2 level being kept as constant as possible. Oxygen is the “elixir of life” for all animal organisms. All animals in an aquarium and pond need oxygen to breathe. But the “invisible helpers” in an aquarium and pond, the bacteria that break down pollutants, also depend on sufficient supplies of oxygen in order to be able to carry out their useful activities. In aquariums and ponds with little or no planting and in marine aquariums the oxygen content always needs to be kept at an adequate balance using technical equipment. The water absorbs oxygen through the water surface. The more the surface is moving the more oxygen is absorbed. In case of dying algae and during the use of many medications the oxygen content in the water needs to be increased by aeration.

Recommended oxygen Values:

• Freshwater aquarium (community aquarium): 5-8 mg/l
• Lake Malawi/Lake Tanganyika aquarium: 5-8 mg/l
• Plant aquarium with few fish (aquascaping): 5-10 mg/l
• Marine aquarium: 5-10 mg/l
• Pond: 5-10 mg/l
