Water Analysis for Fish Farms

The aquatic habitat is determined by a variety of physical, chemical, and biological factors. A change in these parameters always has an impact on the inhabitants of the habitat.

Microbiological Pond Profile

Microbiological water analysis provides precise information about pathogenic microorganisms in the water. Determining the total bacterial count and indicator organisms such as enterobacteria, pseudomonads, and aeromonads forms the backbone of preventive animal health and safe fish keeping.

Your Advantage

  • Detection of infection pressure regarding important pathogenic bacteria even before clinical symptoms appear

  • Assessment of hygiene status: stable water quality and intact filter system

Your Advantage

  • Ensuring appropriate framework conditions by measuring common physical/chemical parameters

  • Monitoring of toxic metabolic products such as ammonia and nitrite

  • Evaluation of filter and system performance by measuring the most important parameters of the biological nitrogen cycle

Physical/Chemical Pond Profile

Physical/chemical water analysis determines important parameters such as pH value, ammonium, nitrite, phosphate, and others. It provides clarity on water quality, enables well-founded management of housing conditions, and ensures stable, healthy stocks.

Comprehensive Pond Profile

A comprehensive pond profile combines microbiological and physical/chemical analysis to provide a complete overview of water conditions. It enables early intervention in case of problems, promotes the long-term health of the fish, and ensures optimal water quality.

Your Advantage

  • Early warning system with higher sensitivity – intervene before clinical symptoms appear

  • Avoidance of unnecessary water treatment agents – proper assessment and targeted measures instead of blanket treatments

Your Advantage

  • Prevention of stress and immunosuppression – fluctuating and incorrect water values lead to stress and thus to susceptibility to bacterial and viral infections

  • Identifying causes instead of treating symptoms – contaminated water is very often the cause of physiological changes in fish that lead to disease

Individual Tests

Routine individual tests provide quick information on specific important water parameters. They enable timely action in case of deviations, reduce risks for animals and stocks, and facilitate regular monitoring of water quality.
