Chemistry and testing

Acriflavine 5% ^20mL

Effective against Fungus, Velvet, Fin & Tail rot and Skin wounds.

Should be confined to stubborn cases only, were other chemicals fail to cure the problem.

Remove activated carbon from filter during treatment, replace with new carbon once dosing is complete.

2ml per 20L

Please note this cure may damage live plants and stain aquarium silicone.

Activated Carbon Pellets 1kg

Aqua One Algae Block
Effectively controls most algae common to freshwater aquariums.
It kills growing algae and prevents algae from recurring.
To control Algae add one piece per 20L or one block per 120L. This Block is best used as a preventitive or when algae first appears or after cleaning an algae infested tank. Block will dissolve over 7-14 days. If possible control the amount of light on tank to reduce the growth of algae. Repeat dose only when algae reappears. To prevent oxygen depletion remove heavy algae growths mechanically before treatment and aerate the water after use.
Active Constituent 2.75g/kg Diuron.

API African Mineral Salts Cichlid

Contains all the trace elements required to create a healthy environment for African cichlids without altering pH. African Mineral Salts Cichlid is a free flowing powder sold with its own measuring scoop for more convenience. It recreates the natural hardness of African rift lakes (lake Tanganyika, lake Malawi, lake Victoria). Use with Buffer Max Cichlid™ to achieve the desired water hardness (general hardness or GH) and alkalinity (or KH).

Proprietary blend of humic acids, tannins and other beneficial organics. Developed to create ideal conditions for South American cichlids, such as discuss, angelfish, rams, oscars, flag cichlid and severum, it can also be used to improve coloration in fish that live in low pH (acidic) water conditions, such as tetras, barbs, gouramis, and killifish as well as in planted aquariums. Use weekly as most dissolved organics it contains oxidize in the aquarium. Amazon Extract™ Cichlid is a non tinting formula that does not alter pH and helps to create ideal water conditions to promote breeding and coloration

Liquid Test Kits

Ammonia, constantly released into the aquarium, is the number one killer of tropical fish. Fast, easy and accurate, this test kit measures ammonia levels from 0 to 7 ppm.

Calcium is one of the most important elements in a reef aquarium. Reef invertebrates such as corals, crustaceans, mollusks and even some types of encrusting algae need calcium to grow and remain healthy. Over time, calcium levels drop as invertebrates use calcium in aquarium water. This kit allows you to easily and accurately measure calcium levels and maintain a healthy reef aquarium.

• Measures calcium levels as low as 20mg/L
• Uses titration method, with easy to see color change for precise measurement.
• For use in reef aquariums

Tests tap water & fresh or saltwater aquariums for carbonate hardness (KH). Can be used to determine the proper dose of pH buffers.

Copper, a common treatment for many parasitic infections, must be monitored in an aquarium or a pond. The copper level can drop too low for the treatment to be effective, or can increase to a point that is detrimental to fish health. Copper may even be present in your tap water. This kit allows you to easily and accurately monitor copper levels to maintain copper-based fish treatments at therapeutic levels.

• Tests copper levels from 0 to 4 ppm
• Measures both free and chelated copper
• Performs 90 Tests
• For use in Freshwater or Saltwater Aquariums or Ponds

Liquid Test Kits

This kit tests tap water and aquarium water for five different parameters that affect the health of freshwater fish: pH, High Range pH, Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrate.  Highly accurate and economical.  Unique, transparent dome allows clear view of contents.  Includes all tests required to test the nitrogen cycle.  Kit includes computer-calibrated and laminated color cards, 4 glass test tubes and holding tray.  Also contains complete, step-by-step instruction booklet, including information on how to correct unsafe water conditions.  Compact and easy to store.  Over 800 tests.

Tests tap water and freshwater aquariums for general hardness (GH) and carbonate hardness (KH). Helps detect stress on fish caused by rapid pH shifts, which result from low KH levels and helps aquarists duplicate the natural habitat of their fish.

API Melafix

Melafix is a breakthrough antibacterial remedy that uses a derivative of the Melaleuca (Tea Tree) to treat bacterial infections in fresh and saltwater fish. Rapidly repairs damaged fins, heals open wounds and ulcers, stops mouth fungus, and treats fin and tail rot. Safe for reef aquariums and live plants. Causes rapid growth of new fins and tissue in as little as 4 days of treatment. Safe for scaleless fish, fry, and invertebrates. Will not affect pH, stain the water, or harm the biological filter.

Measures nitrate levels in both fresh & saltwater aquariums. Tests nitrate levels from 0 to 160 ppm. 90 tests per kit.

Toxic nitrite is produced by nitrifying bacteria in the biological filter as it breaks down ammonia. This kit tests for harmful nitrite and measures levels from 0 to 5.0 ppm.

A complete kit to measure and adjust pH. Tests pH levels from 6.0 to 7.6 and includes bottles of pH Up and pH Down to modify aquarium water pH to desired levels.

pH is the measure of acidity of water.  A pH reading of 7.0 is neutral.  A pH higher than 7.0 is alkaline, and a pH lower than 7.0 is acidic.  Maintaining the aquarium at the proper pH ensures optimal water quality.  The pH should be tested weekly, since natural materials in the aquarium (such as fish waste and uneaten food) can cause pH shifts.

• Reads pH from 6.0 to 7.6
• For freshwater use only

Phosphate can enter your aquarium through tap water, fish waste, and decaying organics such as uneaten food and dead algae. Excess phosphate contributes to unsightly algae blooms. This kit tests phosphate levels from 0 to 10 ppm in fresh and saltwater aquariums.
