Aquarium Water Treatments

API - Tap Water Conditioner (118ml) instantly removes chlorine and neutralises chloramines. It also detoxifies heavy metals in tap water. This is because tap water contains chemicals that make water safe for us to drink, are highly toxic to fish.

Tap water must be treated before adding fish to make sure fish remain healthy.   The formula is incredibly concentrated. You only need up to 3ml to treat 10 gallons of water. It's safe for all aquatic and can be used in both fresh and salt water. Use during aquarium set up, water changes and adding fish.   API Aquarium Treatment Supplies are designed to work in conjunction with each other to provide best results to control algae, promote healthy bacterial growth and help control and cure fish diseases and conditions such as ich and fin rot.

API pH Down is great for when you're setting up a new aquarium, adjusting pH, or changing water as it raises aquarium pH in freshwater aquariums to desired level. pH in an aquarium can fluctuate due to fish waste, uneaten food and addition of tap water -- so, it is recommended to test water for pH weekly.    pH is the measure of acidity of water, on a scale ranging from 0 to 14. A pH of 0 is the most acidic, while a pH of 14 is the most alkaline. Different geographies have different tap water conditions with different pH levels, while fish require a specific pH level to thrive.   A pH of 7.0 is ideal when keeping a community aquarium containing a variety of tropical fish. Goldfish and livebearers prefer a pH of 7.5. Many Amazonian fish, like angelfish and neon tetras, prefer a pH of 6.5 to 6.8. Mollies and swordtails thrive at pH 7.2 to 7.5.   Safe for fish and plants.   API Aquarium Treatment Supplies are designed to work in conjunction with each other to provide best results to control algae, promote healthy bacterial growth and help control and cure fish diseases and conditions such as ich and fin rot. They work to provide a safe, hospitable environment for fish such as tropical community fish, cichlids, goldfish and more.
