Overview
The Hach FF-1A Freshwater Aquaculture Test Kit utilizes drop count titration and color disc methods to deliver fast, accurate results for fish production. Maintaining good water quality is essential for profitable fish production. In many cases, the availability and cost of "crop" insurance is directly related to testing programs. This kit utilizes drop count titration and color disc methods to deliver the fast, accurate results you need.

Titration Methods

    • Alkalinity (0–100, 0–400 mg/L CaCO3)
    • Carbon dioxide (0–100 mg/L CO2)
    • Chloride (0–150, 0–600 mg/L Cl–)
    • Dissolved oxygen (0–4, 0–20 mg/L O2)
    • Hardness, total (0–342 mg/L CaCO3)

Color Disk Methods

    • Ammonia (0–3.0 NH3–N)
    • Nitrite (0–0.4 mg/L NO2–N)
    • pH (4–10 pH units) Observation Method
    • Supersaturation: (Qualitative)

Includes seventeen reagents, one measuring tube, one color comparator box, one BOD bottle, one mixing bottle, one dropper, two plastic tubes, three color discs, one thermometer, instructions, and a carrying case.

Questions & Answers
Do you offer a reagent refill kit?
We do not offer a refill kit, however, refill reagents are available individually under the Accessories tab.
What are the 9 basic water quality parameters that can be measured by this kit?
The Hach Freshwater Aquaculture test kit measures for ammonia, nitrite, pH, temperature, alkalinity, carbon dioxide, chloride, dissolved oxygen and hardness.
When testing for Ammonia, my sample has a slight yellow color. Is my sample contaminated?
No, the Nessler reagent gives even pure water a slight yellow color. This small color is negligible unless measuring a small amount of Ammonia. When measuring a small amount, add 3 drops of reagent to 5mL of ammonia-free water to use instead of the untreated sample in the left top opening.
When testing for carbon dioxide, what is the ratio between carbon dioxide and Sodium Hydroxide drops?
Each drop of Sodium Hydroxide Standard Solution is equivalent to 5mg/L of Carbon Dioxide.

Sustainable Fishing in Alaska: Protecting the Salmon Capital of the World through Research

In the far north, the Alaska Peninsula stretches away from the Last Frontier into the Pacific Ocean. A narrow strip of land dotted with freshwater lakes and intruded upon by ocean inlets–this unique region is intimately connected with the surrounding water. Nestled halfway down the peninsula's southern coast are the small villages of Chignik. The area has historically been home to the Aleut people and has been heavily reliant on fishing for centuries. Home to commercial and subsistence fishing today, Chignik continues to rely upon the salmon returns to the surrounding villages, which are supported by scientists working tirelessly to understand and steward these fish populations.

NexSens X3 Data Logger Review

Extreme environments meet extreme design with the NexSens X3 Data Logger . The new logger offers the latest in real-time monitoring technology with wireless communication, a large plug-and-play sensor library and ultra-low power consumption, all in a waterproof marine-grade housing. The X3 is built to handle harsh weather, floods, high winds and rough seas, and it stands alone; no additional protective housing needed. With an operating temperature that ranges from -40°C to 70°C, the logger can withstand arctic environments and extreme heat. A conformal coating on the internal circuit board isolates it from moisture and humidity.

Buoy-Based Solutions: Strengthening Kentucky’s Emergency Response Efforts

When Kentucky’s Emergency Response Team (ERT) has to act quickly in response to chemical and oil spills in the Commonwealth, they rely on small, easily deployable buoys to collect critical data that help minimize and evaluate damages in environmental emergencies. With a background in geology, Robert Blair primarily worked with groundwater and got involved sporadically with the ERT during groundwater contamination emergencies. Over time, this involvement led to him joining the ERT as an On-Scene Coordinator and then becoming the branch manager for the team and overall Emergency Response Branch .
