Makes tap water safe for goldfish by removing harmful compounds and adding beneficial substances.
At times it is necessary to add tap water to the aquarium, as part of a water change or a top-up. Tap water is designed for human use, and therefore contains high levels of chlorine to kill germs. In addition, it may contain varying levels of toxic heavy metals. Both chlorine and heavy metals are toxic to fish, and will cause them long-term damage and stress. Leaving water to stand will not remove all of these factors, and so is not an alternative to using a water conditioner. AquaSafe neutralises harmful elements in tap water, and adds beneficial substances to create healthy, fish-friendly water.
Application
Add AquaSafe to new tap water at a rate of 5ml per 10litres (2gallons), to make it safe prior to adding it to the aquarium. AquaSafe can also be added directly to the aquarium at the same dosage to act as a general stress-reliever. This is especially helpful for new fish, following maintenance, or when treating the fish for a disease. When preparing water for water changes, it is best to treat it with AquaSafe in a bucket beforehand, and use boiled tap water to warm it to the same temperature as the aquarium.
