Seachem Ammonia Alert (1 Year) — Continuous Colourimetric Free Ammonia Monitor To Track Toxic Free-Ammonia(NH₃) Levels In Freshwater & Marine Aquariums

Seachem Ammonia Alert (SKU: 725032-10) is a continuous colourimetric monitor designed to track toxic free ammonia (NH₃) levels in freshwater and marine aquariums. Conventional liquid test kits require manual water sampling and can give false positives by measuring harmless ammonium (NH₄⁺). Ammonia Alert uses a specialised sensor membrane that reacts exclusively to toxic free ammonia gas, changing colour continuously to reflect real-time water conditions.

The Seachem Ammonia Alert provides continuous, real-time monitoring of toxic ammonia levels in aquariums, with a colour-changing sensor to easily indicate safe or dangerous concentrations. It is low-maintenance, lasts up to a year, and offers an efficient alternative to traditional testing methods, making it essential for maintaining healthy water conditions. Designed to be placed inside the aquarium, Ammonia Alert provides continuous monitoring for up to one year. Its colour-coded display shifts from yellow (“Safe”) to green (“Alert”), blue (“Alarm”), and dark purple (“Panic”) as free ammonia levels rise, alerting aquarists to dangerous water conditions before fish show signs of distress.

Usage & Application

When to Use

• Continuous Water Monitoring: Provides round-the-clock visual monitoring of free ammonia in established tanks.
• New Tank Cycling: Visually tracks free ammonia during biological filter maturation.
• Quarantine & Hospital Tanks: Monitors water quality in unfiltered treatment or quarantine containers.

Placement & Interpretation Guide

• Placement: Suction-cup the card inside the aquarium in a clean, easily visible area with moderate water circulation.
• Colour Reading: Match the sensor disc colour to the surrounding colour wheel: Yellow = Safe (<0.02 mg/L), Green = Alert (0.05 mg/L), Blue = Alarm (0.2 mg/L), Purple = Panic (0.5 mg/L).
• Response Time: Sensor responds to ammonia shifts within 15 minutes, reaching full colour stability in 2–4 hours.
