Water Quality

Updated Sep 11

pH Level (Acidity/Alkalinity)3.8

Measures water acidity or alkalinity on a scale of 0-14. Neutral is 7. Most fish thrive in 6.5-8.5 range.

Tp (mg/L) (Water Quality Parameter)0.0

Tp (mg/L) - a water quality measurement. Contact local authorities for specific safety guidelines.

Turbidity (Water Clarity)-1.5 NTU

Measures water cloudiness caused by suspended particles. Lower values indicate clearer water. <25 NTU is good.

Electrical Conductivity311.6 µS/cm

Measures dissolved ions and minerals in water. Indicates salinity and pollution levels. Freshwater: 100-500 µS/cm.
