No, the color chart is totally different. This will not work with freshwater unfortunately.

I believe the water piks are al interchangeable. I would definitely try it!

I don't see why not, I used it on a artisan well which is the sameI would not rely to much as it is a "kit" but if any of the tests were inconclusive I would have had the water tested profesionaly

No, you need to go by the label. Saltwater has different chemistry than freshwater.

Yes.. should work perfectly. Just remember to include 2 parts water (or liqid).

It will work fine.But my 2 cents is save your money on that product and do more water changes. Better for the fish.

Technically you COULD, but it'd be a strettch... after my experience working with fish I can definitely this tank is far too small for most aquatic life.

I never actually used it for that, but it is supposed to be able to filter either of those. I think I would have felt safe using it for either of those, I just didn't have a need to filter river or lake water.

I suppose the filter could use to it to fill up the freshwater tank but since it can't be attached to a threaded inlet, you'd have to ensure that the filler hose remains in the filler tube - not a big deal really. just make sure you flush out the filter first, otherwise you'll wind up with charcoal dust in your freshwater tank. just run the water through the filter till the water comes out clear.

yes, but if you have a freshwater fish you need the freshwater formula this is for marine fish.

I don't know about that I only use it in my pond. You might try contacting the manufacturer.

Yes, I used it as a freshwater tank. However, there are better alternatives for freshwater that are cheaper and give you much more tank space for the same footprint. I retired my Nuvo and went to a standard tank with a hang on filter. Also, small fish (I had the problem with a couple of loaches) can get into the filter through the overflow and it is next to impossible to get them out- there are almost no saltwater fish small enough to be a problem.

These should work fine for freshwater plants. I would buy two strips and set them side by side.

Sure, you could. I would recommend getting a full 5 gallon kit though. It'll be cheaper in the long run. Austin homebrew has some great kits to choose from.

Yes you can. I use it for individual pots that go into a pond. I also use it for pots that just go into a container of water rather than a pond.

greetings, this lamp for marine aquariums REEF .. not for freshwater aquarium. Check and read carefully before making an unnecessary expense. If you want to buy is your decision: I do not know what the behavior of plants inside the aquarium with the lighting. I recommend and look ORBIT LED lamps .. Greetings. NelsonC

ABSOLUTELY!!! Its strong and light...i use my 15 footer for saltwater exclusively...but I don't see any reason why the shorter versions cannot be used for freshwater...go ahead and give it a try!
