Laboratory Water Analysis

ICP-OES and NDOC testing

Together with Triton Lab, we offer advanced water testing in the form of ICP and NDOC testing, a comprehensive solution for maintaining the stability and vibrancy of your reef aquarium.

At Aquarium Connections we offer consultations to provide support and guidance to better understand your results and the best ways to utilise this tool.

ICP-OES Testing

With our in-house ICP-OES (Inductively Coupled Plasma Optimal Emission Spectrometry) machine, we can measure 45 essential elements critical to the health of your aquatic system. This advanced testing allows for precise analysis and diagnosis of potential imbalances and issues.

This promotes a better understanding of your aquariums health, enhanced growth rates and more vibrant colours in your reef.

Through Triton Lab, the results of the ICP-OES are analysed and present in a clear, user-friendly format, allowing you to visualise any irregularities.

The progression and trends of each element are tracked, enabling you to pinpoint issues and receive personalised product recommendations from Triton to optimise your systems performance. At aquarium connections we offer consultations to provide support and guidance to better understand your results and the best ways to utilise this tool.

ICP-OES FAQ

NDOC Testing

As the home of Triton Uk, we also offer NDOC (NON-DESTRUCTIVE organic carbon) testing, providing detailed insight into nitrogen and dissolved organic carbon levels. This advanced analysis explores the complex organic dynamics within seawater, using the Triton Ratio (N:C:P) to monitor nutrient levels and control their influence on the aquatic environment.

NDOC testing is invaluable for troubleshooting common issues such as tissue necrosis, nuisance bacteria, algae blooms and cyanobacteria. By understanding the nutrient imbalances and organic compounds, we can gain a powerful tool for maintaining a healthy and balanced system.
