Fluval Wide Range pH Test Kit 100 Tests
A liquid-reagent pH test covering the wide 4.5–9.0 range most freshwater and marine aquariums fall within. The Fluval Wide Range pH Test Kit uses a reagent drop and colour-comparison method rather than dip strips, giving 100 tests from a single 10 mL reagent bottle. It suits both freshwater and saltwater setups.
Key features
- 4.5–9.0 pH range – covers acidic planted setups through to alkaline African cichlid and reef tanks
- 100 tests per kit from a single 10 mL reagent bottle
- Liquid reagent method – generally more accurate and longer-lasting than dip strips
- Fresh and saltwater suitable
- Made in Canada

What we couldn't verify
Fluval's instruction sheet for this kit wasn't accessible to us at the time of writing, so we can't confirm the exact colour-chart resolution (the smallest pH increment it distinguishes), time to result, reagent shelf life, or interference with medications and dechlorinators. These aren't invented here – check the printed instruction sheet in the box, or Fluval's support line, if you need those figures before buying.
Care and maintenance
Store the reagent bottle in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight, as is standard practice for liquid aquarium test reagents. Fluval doesn't publish a specific expiry date for this kit.
Warranty and delivery

Common questions
Is this a strip test or a liquid test?
Liquid reagent – you add drops to a water sample in the supplied test tube and compare the colour against the included chart.
Can I use this on a marine or reef tank?
Yes – Fluval markets this kit for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums.
How many tests do I get from one kit?
100 tests from the supplied 10 mL reagent bottle.
What pH range does it cover?
4.5 to 9.0, which spans acidic soft-water and planted setups through to alkaline African cichlid and reef conditions in one kit.
