Mail-In Comprehensive Pond Water  Testing Kit

Get the insights you need—straight from the lab. Our Mail-In Comprehensive Pond Water Testing Kit lets you easily collect a water sample and ship it to our partnered, certified lab for in-depth testing. While the lab results themselves are raw data only, we’ll provide a tailored interpretation and practical guidance so you know exactly what your results mean for your pond and your fish.

4. Lab Analysis (2–3 Weeks)

• The lab conducts comprehensive testing for bacteria, nutrients, metals, and more.
• Note: The lab’s report is raw data only.

5. Interpretation & Sportfish Guidance

• Once we receive the lab’s raw data (usually within 2–3 weeks), we’ll review and interpret the results.
• You’ll receive both the raw data and an easy-to-read summary explaining how each parameter impacts your pond’s health and sportfish population.

What’s Tested

• Microbiological Contaminants
  • Fecal Coliform, E. coli, Total Coliforms
• Nutrients
  • Nitrates (NO₃⁻), Nitrites (NO₂⁻)
• Metals
  • Lead (Pb), Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), Manganese (Mn)
• Ions & Salinity Indicators
  • Chlorides, Sulfates, pH, Alkalinity, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
• Hardness & SAR (Sodium Adsorption Ratio)

Why It Matters

• Healthy Sportfish
  Properly balanced water chemistry promotes robust growth and survival for species like bass, bluegill, and catfish.

• Safe Recreation
  Low pathogen levels mean safer swimming, wading, and other water activities for friends and family.

• Efficient Irrigation & Livestock Water
  Understand if your water meets acceptable standards for agriculture without risking soil structure or animal health.

• Proactive Maintenance
  Detect hidden issues (e.g., high metals, nutrient imbalances) before they escalate into costly problems.
