Coralvue Ready-to-Use Alkalinity (dKH) Reagent, 500ml
SKU: CV-ALK-RTU500
- The CoralVue Ready-to-Use 0.02N Alkalinity Reagent is a pre-mixed, no-dilution alkalinity reagent for the HYDROS iV Tester and Focustronic Alkatronic — and any other automated alkalinity testing machine that requires a 0.02N reagent.
- It arrives at the correct working concentration and is ready to pour directly into your machine's reagent container with no measuring, mixing, or RO/DI water required.
- Non-returnable once shipped due to the chemical nature of this product.

Ready-to-Use 0.02N Alkalinity Reagent (500ml) for Automated Alkalinity Testing Machines
The CoralVue Ready-to-Use 0.02N Alkalinity Reagent is the no-preparation option for HYDROS iV Tester and Focustronic Alkatronic users who want to refill their machine and get back to testing without measuring, mixing, or sourcing RO/DI water. It is pre-prepared at the correct 0.02N working concentration and can be poured directly into the machine's reagent container straight from the bottle.
The 0.02N normality matches the working concentration produced when the CoralVue Alkalinity Testing Machine Concentrated Reagent is mixed at the standard 1:4 ratio — so both products deliver the same reagent chemistry to the machine. The choice between them is a practical one: the ready-to-use option trades the lower per-mL cost of the concentrate for complete simplicity and no mixing step. For hobbyists who do not keep RO/DI water on hand or who want the fewest variables in their testing setup, the ready-to-use format is the more straightforward choice. It is compatible with any automated alkalinity testing machine that requires a 0.02N reagent.
Due to the chemical nature of this product, alkalinity reagents are non-returnable once shipped.
Key Features:
- Pre-mixed 0.02N alkalinity reagent; no dilution, measuring, or RO/DI water required
- Compatible with the HYDROS iV Tester, Focustronic Alkatronic, and any automated alkalinity testing machine requiring a 0.02N reagent
- Same 0.02N working concentration as the CoralVue concentrated reagent mixed at the standard 1:4 ratio
- Pour directly into the machine's reagent container — no preparation steps
- Non-returnable once shipped
Ideal For:
- HYDROS iV and Alkatronic users who want the simplest possible reagent refill experience with no mixing required
- Hobbyists who do not keep RO/DI water on hand or who want to eliminate preparation variables from their automated testing routine
- Anyone setting up a new automated alkalinity testing machine for the first time who wants a ready-to-go reagent without the additional step of learning the correct dilution ratio
Pro Tips:
- Confirm your machine requires 0.02N before purchasing. This reagent is pre-mixed to 0.02N. If your machine requires a different normality or a different dilution protocol (such as the Kamoer KH Carer, which uses the concentrate at 1:8), this ready-to-use formula is not the correct product. Check your machine's documentation before ordering.
- Store at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Reagent chemistry is sensitive to heat and light exposure. Proper storage maintains consistency and extends the usable shelf life between refills.
- Keep a backup bottle on hand. Automated alkalinity monitoring only works when reagent is available. Running out mid-testing cycle means your system goes offline until a new order arrives. Stocking a backup bottle eliminates that gap.

While most of our equipment carries a one-year manufacturer's warranty, consumable products like fish and coral foods are not covered under traditional warranty terms due to their perishable nature and varied storage conditions. However, we fully stand behind the quality of every product we sell. If you experience any issues with your food purchase shortly after receiving it, such as concerns about freshness, packaging integrity, or product quality, please contact us at [email protected]. We're committed to making it right and will work with you to resolve any problems quickly and fairly.
Instructions:
- Confirm your automated alkalinity testing machine requires a 0.02N reagent before use. This reagent is pre-mixed to 0.02N and is not suitable for machines that require a different normality or dilution protocol.
- Open the bottle. No dilution or mixing is required.
- Pour the ready-to-use reagent directly into your machine's designated reagent container.
- Follow your machine's operating instructions to resume or begin automated alkalinity testing.
- Store any unused portion at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
- Keep a backup bottle on hand to avoid gaps in automated monitoring when the current bottle runs low.
