Aquarium Algae Control

Aquasonic Algicide is a safe broad spectrum algae treatment that controls many types of annoying algae, while remaining gentle to aquarium plants. Algicide will not affect aquarium plants or fish, provided it is used in the correct dosage. Store in the closed, original container in a cool dry place. Keep out of reach of children. Do not store in direct sunlight. Dispose of empty container by wrapping paper, placing in a plastic bag, and putting the rubbish. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Wash hands after use. Directions for Use: Do not use in aquariums containing fish intended for human consumption. Shake bottle vigorously before each application. Use at the rate of 1ml (20 drops) per 20 litres of aquarium water. Do not overdose as plant damage may result. Maintain aeration and filtration during treatment. Results should be evident after 7 days. Treatment may be repeated after 14 days if necessary. If algae persists, consider decreasing the amount of light the aquarium receives and increasing the frequency of partial water changes. 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. How to Prepare: To calculate approximate tank capacity: multiply length x width x water level height (in cm) and divide by 1,000 litres.   First Aid: If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre. Phone: Australia 13 11 26; New Zealand 0800 764 766.
