Aquarium Water Treatments

API - Tap Water Conditioner (30ml) 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. High levels of these chemicals destroy fish gill tissue, preventing the uptake of oxygen which can lead to fish death. Even low levels irritate delicate fish tissue. 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. They work to provide a safe, hospitable environment for fish such as tropical community fish, cichlids, goldfish and more. With API, you can spend more time admiring your fish, and less time scrubbing your tank. Make sure to use all products as directed in order to ensure the best results.

API - Quick Start (118ml) has unique, patented nitrifying bacteria that has been scientifically proven to quickly consume ammonia and nitrate to help prevent fish loss. This is because in a new aquarium, harmful ammonia and nitrate build from fish waste, often resulting fish loss or "new tank syndrome".   This product allows the immediate addition of fish to a new freshwater or saltwater aquarium as it immediately starts the aquarium cycle. This treatment also helps to maintain an active biological filter in an established aquarium for healthy water conditions. It contains live, nitrifying bacteria.   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.

Water changes can be very tough on aquarium fish, often resulting in disease or even fatality. Betta Protech has been formulated to effectively assist fish with recovery after a water change, transport or handling. Betta Protech replaces slime coating and makes fish feel well by providing a powerful vitamin mix including: B1, B2, B6, B12, E, and A. This enables the fish to fight off disease and start feeding again quickly. Use during and after transport, after a water change, after any handling of fish or simply as a vitamin supplement. Fungal inhibitors have also been added to help guard against infections.   Directions for Use: 1ml per 20ml for general use. For fish in a poor state use treatments as high as 1ml per 5ml to assist in faster recovery. For transport use general dose rates. 1ml = approx 15 drops. To calculate approximate aquarium capacity: Multiply the length x width x water level height (in cm) and divide by 1,000 for litres.

API pH Proper 7.0 Powder Jar automatically sets and stabilizes the pH level in freshwater aquariums to 7.0 which is perfect for a mixed variety of tropical freshwater fish. It also removes toxic compounds from tap water such as chlorine, neutralizes chloramines, detoxifies heavy metals, and adds electrolytes, making tap water safe for fish. Use this aquarium treatment when setting up a new aquarium, adjusting pH, or changing water. pH in an aquarium can fluctuate due to fish waste, uneaten food and addition of tap water. 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. Water with a pH of 7.0 is considered ""neutral"". Different geographies have different tap water conditions with different pH levels, while fish require a specific pH level to thrive.    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.

The Carbonate Hardness (kH) or also referred to as alkalinity of water is the basis for pH values. The stability of pH can be ensured by raising carbonate hardness levels without effect on general hardness.Acids produced in closed circuit aquaria continuously reduce the carbonate hardness levels.   Carbonate Hardness Generator is a special blend of pH buffers that provide a sustained kH level for longer than if using just sodium bicarbonate. Prior raising of carbonate levels will avert drastic falls in pH resultant from these acids, acting to maintain a more stable pH.   Directions for Use: 4g (approx. 1 teaspoon) per 100L of water or 40g per 1000L of water raises carbonate hardness levels by 20ppm. Caution pH levels may rise. It is not recommended to raise carbonate hardness values by more than 20ppm per day.To calculate approximate aquarium capacity: Multiply the length x width x height (in cm) and divide by 1,000 for litres.
