A CO2 drop checker is a glass indicator that monitors carbon dioxide levels in a planted aquarium by changing color based on the pH of a 4 dKH reference solution: green indicates optimal CO2, yellow means too much, and blue means too little. It gives a reliable visual reading roughly 1-2 hours after placement. The representative unit shown is the UNS Drop Checker, available in suction-cup (SD) and rimless hang-on (HD) styles and supplied with indicator solution; a pH pen complements it for precise readings.
