The JBL KH test measures carbonate hardness, the temporary hardness that buffers pH. Plants, bacteria and animals consume KH, so the value needs watching in shrimp tanks.
Follow the pack dosing and compare the colour with the scale. A stable KH makes it easier to keep pH even.
Store the reagents as the maker directs. Pair it with GH and pH tests for a full picture of the water.

Follow the directions carefully, use clean sample containers and avoid contaminating reagents or sensors. Rinse equipment with clean water after testing.
Test at the same time and under similar conditions when comparing values. Also test after major water changes, during problems or before adding sensitive animals.
Digital meters normally require regular calibration and correct sensor storage. Liquid tests should be checked for expiry and stored as directed.
Repeat with a clean sample and check calibration and expiry. Confirm with another method before making major aquarium changes.
