Fungal diseases are common in freshwater fishes and are recognised by white or grey threads on the skin or fins which may thicken until they resemble tufts of cotton wool (pin head size) on the fished body and fins. Unless prompt action is taken fatalities will occur.   Directions for Use: Do not use on fish intended for human consumption. A partial water change (25% capacity) is recommended before commencing treatment. Ensure aquarium water is well aerated and remove activated carbon from filtration system for the duration of treatment. Activated carbon will remove this product from the aquarium water resulting in ineffective. This product contains a dye product which will stain if spilled.   Dose Rate: Add 5ml per 20 litres of aquarium water. For Tetra species, baby fish and scaleless fish (loaches, etc). Use at the reduced rate of 5ml per 40 litres of aquarium water. Repeat after 3 days. TO GIVE NUMBER OF LITRES: To calculate approximate tank capacity multiple length x width x water level height (all in cms) and divide by 1000 or litres.   Disposal: Dispose of empty container by wrapping with paper and putting in garbage.   Storage: Store below 30C (Room Temperature). Replace lid tightly after use.   First Aid Instructions: For advice, contact the Poisons Information Centre (phone Australia 13 11 26; New Zealand 0800 764 766) or a doctor (at once).

Aquasonic Goldfish Water Conditioning Salts have been formulated to re-create natural conditions in your aquarium or fish bowl. It contains the correct balance of salts, natural minerals and trace elements, plus bacterial and fungal inhibitors, to promote health and wellbeing. Use Goldfish Water Conditioning Salts with new aquarium water, when starting up or doing a water change. It will raise General Hardness by approx. 120ppm and Salinity (NaCI) by 225ppm. Further addition of salt (NaCI) is not recommended.   Directions for Use: Add one level teaspoon (approx. 5gm) per 10L of water. Re-seal container when not in use. Do not re-dose without a water change. To calculate approximate aquarium capacity: Multiply the length x width x water level height (in cm) and divide by 1,000 for litres.

This HARDNESS TEST KIT measures the sum of the calcium and magnesium concentrations, expressed in ppm (parts per million). This is, in essence, measurement of the permanent hardness of water, but the measurement may also contain some temporary hardness in the form of calcium dissolved by carbon dioxide in water. This form of temporary hardness is usually minimal.   How Does Water Become Hard? Water hardness results from dissolved compounds of magnesium and calcium. With temporary hardness, magnesium and calcium are dissolved by carbon dioxidein water. This process can be reversed by removing the carbon dioxide, e.g. By boiling,or as aquatic plants use carbon dioxide. However, if the salts of magnesium or calciumare dissolved as a result of an acid present in water, the hardness becomes permanent.   Water Hardness In The Natural State The degree of hardness varies not only from country to country but river to river and even the hardness in each river varies from season to season. Aquatic life have different requirements according to geographical location and though most fish can stand a great deal of variation in hardness, they do best at specific levels. Factors like breeding of a species, the colour of a species or even the inhibition of fungal diseases can be greatly enhanced by the hardness of water.   Species Requirements Examples of fish that live at or below 150ppm are Angels, Corydoras, Catfish, Discus, Gouramis, Loaches, South American Tetras. Examples of fish that live between 150ppm and 300ppm are some Australian Natives, Guppies, Sword Tails, Mollies, Platties, and Goldfish. Examples of fish living above 300ppm and usually under 500ppm are African Cichlids, and Brackish water species.   Directions for Use: The test kit has a dual range, measurements can be made in steps of 10ppm or 20ppm (ppm = parts per million). Complete the test within 5 minutes.   To Test in 10ppm: Rinse a clean test tube several times in the water to be tested and fill to the 10 ml mark. Add 3 drops of Reagent 1, swirl to mix, then add 3 drops Reagent 2 and swirl to mix. Now add Reagent 3 (hold the bottle vertically), a drop at a time, swirl to mix before adding the next drop. Keep count of the drops. When the colour changes from red to blue the end point has been reached. Multiply the number of drops by 10 for the reading in parts per million. To Test in 20ppm: Rinse a clean test tube several times in the water to be tested and fill to the 5ml mark. Add 2 drops of Reagent 1, swirl to mix, then add 2 drops of Reagent 2 and swirl to mix. Now add Reagent 3 (hold the bottle vertically), a drop at a time, swirl to mix before adding the next drop. Keep count of the drops. When the colour changes from red to blue the end point has been reached. Multiply the number of drops by 20 for the reading in parts per million.

Aquasonic Ichonex assists in the treatment of white spot (Ichthyophirius multifillis) disease, without the toxic effects of conventional treatments and without staining.   Directions for Use: Do not use on fish intended for human consumption. Ensure aquarium water is well aerated during treatment. Do not use activated carbon in the filtration system during treatment as this will remove the product from the aquarium water. If sub-gravel filtration is being used, slow down the flow rates during treatment. This product contains a dye which will stain if spilled.   Dose Rate: Treatment should be over three days as follows: Initially add 5ml per 40litres of aquarium water. On days 2 and 3 use at half the initial rate.TO GIVE NUMBER OF LITRES: To calculate approximate tank capacity multiply length x width x water level height (all in cms) and divide by 1000 for litres.   Remember: High standards of aquarium management must be maintained to prevent disease, as fish diseases are often management related. Consult your veterinarian or aquarium dealer for accurate diagnosis and advice.   Storage: Store below 30C (Room Temperature). Replace lid tightly after use.   Disposal: Dispose of empty container by wrapping paper and placing in garbage.   First Aid Instructions: For advice, contact the Poisons Information Centre (phone Australia 13 11 26; New Zealand 0800 764 766) or a doctor (at once).
