Red Sea Algae Control Pro Test Kit

The Red Sea Algae Control Pro Test Kit gives reefers professional-grade resolution on the two parameters that drive nuisance algae growth: nitrate and phosphate. With high-accuracy comparator-style readings, you’ll catch nutrient creep early — before algae takes hold or coral colors fade.

What’s Inside

• Nitrate Pro (NO3)— 100 tests, 0–64 ppm range, 0.125 ppm resolution
• Phosphate Pro (PO4)— 100 tests, 0–5 ppm range, 0.02 ppm resolution
• Lab-grade glass test vials in a durable plastic case
• Color comparator disk for precise readings
• All reagents (NO3 A/B/C, PO4 A/B), pipettes, syringes, and instructions

Features

• Professional-grade accuracy ideal for SPS-dominant and high-end reef tanks
• Comparator-style color matching eliminates the guesswork of side-by-side cards
• Designed for use with Red Sea’s NO3:PO4-X (NOPOX) nutrient reduction program
• Glass vials don’t fog over time — readings stay accurate test after test
• Refill kits sold separately for both Nitrate Pro and Phosphate Pro

FAQ

How is this different from the regular Red Sea NO3/PO4 kits?
The Pro version uses a high-resolution comparator system instead of basic color cards, giving much finer readings (0.125 ppm NO3, 0.02 ppm PO4). It’s the kit serious reefers use to dial in low nutrient levels.

Do I need this if I already have the MCP Marine Care kit?
If you’re running SPS or chasing low-nutrient ULNS conditions, yes — the Pro kit’s resolution is essential for that level of monitoring. The MCP kit is fine for standard maintenance.

Can I just buy refills later?
Yes. Red Sea sells separate Nitrate Pro and Phosphate Pro refill kits (100 tests each), so you only replace the reagents you’ve used.

Is this freshwater compatible?
No. The Algae Control Pro kit is formulated specifically for marine and reef aquariums.
