Is API CO2 BOOSTER™ a gas? No, API CO2 BOOSTER product is an organic compound, not a gas. Why can API CO2 BOOSTER™ product be dosed daily, but API LEAF ZONE™ plant fertilizer is only dosed weekly? API CO2 BOOSTER product breaks down chemically to supply carbon to plants within 24 hours, thus the reason for re-dosing every 24 hours.

Meanwhile, API LEAF ZONE plant fertilizer is stable in the water until the nutrients are utilized by the plants, allowing for a weekly dose. Can API CO2 BOOSTER™ product be used with shrimp? Yes, API CO2 BOOSTER product is safe for use with shrimp. Dosing directions should be followed.

API MELAFIX Freshwater Fish Bacterial Infection Remedy soothes the transition from store to home by reducing the risk of your fish developing a disease. The fish you bought may already carry a disease.  Disease is often difficult to detect, particularly in its early stages. Treat bacterial infections in your fish and reduce the risk of spreading illness to other fish with API MELAFIX Freshwater Fish Bacterial Infection Remedy.   Bacterial diseases are caused mostly by dirty aquarium conditions and the addition of infected fish. Fish that are injured and have open wounds are especially susceptible, even in seemingly clean tanks. Bacterial infections, like fin and tail rot, eye cloud, pop eye, body slime and mouth fungus destroy tissue and other organs, and if left untreated, can cause death. API MELAFIX Freshwater Fish Bacterial Infection Remedy is an all-natural antibacterial treatment that heals open wounds, treats bacterial infections and promotes re-growth of damaged fins and tissue, usually within a week.   Just add 5 ml per 38 liters of aquarium water. It will not adversely affect the biological filter, alter the pH or discolour the water. For effective treatment, dose infected fish daily for 7 days, and continue afterward if necessary. Dose new fish daily for 3 days. Remove activated carbon from filter before use, if possible.   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.

API® ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier quickly clarifies cloudy water in your aquarium, eliminating haze to make your water crystal clear. API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier clumps tiny floating particles together, forming large particles to be more easily removed by your aquarium filter. Product is safe for use with all freshwater fish and plants. Add 1 ml per 10 gallons of aquarium water. The water will clear within several hours. If a second dose is necessary, wait 24 hours. FAQs What does API ACCU-CLEAR™ water clarifier do? API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier clears green or cloudy water in freshwater aquariums by clumping small particles together into larger pieces, so they can settle to the bottom of your aquarium to be siphoned out, or easily removed by the filter. Is API ACCU-CLEAR™ water clarifier safe with fish and plants? Yes, API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier is a safe product for both fish and plants. Why can’t API ACCU-CLEAR™ water clarifier be used in marine aquariums? In water with a high mineral content, such as the water found in marine (or saltwater) aquariums, API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier will not clear cloudiness and could even make it worse. However, API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier will not cause any harm to fish or marine plants. Can API ACCU-CLEAR™ water clarifier be used if I have added salt to the water in my freshwater aquarium as part of a supportive treatment for fish? Yes, a low level of salt in the water, as is typically the case with freshwater aquariums, is not a problem with API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier. However, API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier does not act as a healing treatment for fish like aquarium salt. Its primary purpose is for aquarium cleanliness and clarity. Will API ACCU- CLEAR™ water clarifier clear the cloudiness caused by bacterial blooms? API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier will help to clear the cloudiness caused by bacterial blooms, but does not address the underlying cause. As a result, the cloudiness will come back quickly unless the main cause of bacterial blooms is treated. Can I repeat the dose of API ACCU-CLEAR™ water clarifier if the cloudiness persists? API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier can be dosed again after 24 hours. However, further doses should not be added after this, as repeated doses will actually make cloudiness worse. API ACCU-CLEAR water clarifier can be dosed once a week as a routine treatment to help keep water clear, but if cloudiness persists, you may want to perform a 25% water change.
