Pondlab single-parameter tests are droplet tests designed for the targeted monitoring of individual water parameters in garden ponds and koi ponds. Depending on the variant, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH, GH/KH or phosphate can be tested manually.
The tests are suitable for monitoring progress, in the event of abnormal readings, or when a specific water parameter needs to be checked.
Ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH, hardness levels and phosphate all play different roles in assessing water quality. Aqualogistik will be happy to help you choose the right water tests and pond care products.

Pondlab single tests are manual droplet tests for analysing specific water parameters in ponds. They are suitable for garden ponds and koi ponds when individual parameters need to be monitored specifically – for example, following unusual test results, in the event of changes in the pond, or for regular monitoring.
Depending on the variant chosen, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH, total hardness and carbonate hardness, or phosphate can be tested. Depending on the test, the results are interpreted using either a colour comparison or a drop-counting/colour-change method.
A practical example: if elevated nutrient levels are suspected in a pond, the phosphate or nitrate levels can be tested specifically. In the event of problems with the biological filtration process, ammonia and nitrite are particularly important parameters to monitor.
The exact contents of the package may vary slightly depending on the model and manufacturer’s batch. Please refer to the information on the packaging and in the user manual.
Pondlab single tests are available in several variants. Each test is designed to measure a specific water parameter.
| Item number | Variant | Technical Specifications |
|---|---|---|
| 41010082 | Pondlab Ammonia Test | 40 tests (NH3-N) |
| 41010086 | Pondlab Nitrite Test | 40 tests (NO₂-N) |
| 41010085 | Pondlab Nitrate Test | 30 tests (NO₃) |
| 41010088 | Pondlab Broad pH Test | 40 tests · Measurement range pH 6.0–9.0 · 0.5 pH resolution |
| 41010089 | Pondlab Hardness Test (GH/KH) | Up to 80 tests · Drop-counting/colour-change method |
| 41010095 | Pondlab Phosphate Test | 40 tests (PO4) |
Depending on the test variant, the test is carried out using reagents and a colour comparison, or via a drop-counting/colour-change method. The enclosed instructions should be read in full before use.
Individual tests are particularly useful when a specific parameter needs to be monitored regularly or as an additional check.
Pondlab single tests can be combined with other water tests and suitable pond care products. They are particularly suitable as a supplement to multi-test kits when individual parameters need to be checked regularly.
Suitable areas can be found under Water test and Pond care.
Test vessels and accessories should be clean and rinsed with the pond water to be tested before taking a measurement. The water volume, number of drops, waiting time and interpretation of results must be carried out in accordance with the instructions for use.
The choice of test should be based on the specific monitoring requirements. Ammonia and nitrite are key indicators in the nitrogen cycle, whilst nitrate and phosphate provide an indication of nutrient levels; pH and hardness levels help to assess water stability.
To monitor progress, it is a good idea to record measurement results along with the date. This makes it easier to spot changes in the pond water.
