Kordon AmQuel Plus Ammonia Detoxifier water conditioner protects fishes and invertebrates by eliminating Nitrite, Nitrate, and all forms of Ammonia, Chloramines, and Chlorine. It removes fishs toxic pheromones and toxic organics and does not affect the waters pH. AmQuel Plus is safe to use in reef and live rock aquariums.

• Removes Nitrate, Nitrite, Ammonia, Chlorine and Chloramines
• Safe for Freshwater and Saltwater Aquariums
• Does not interfere with the biological cycle

Each ounce treats 60 gallons of water. Amquel protects pond fishes and invertebrates by quick elimination, in a true single step-action three of the most toxic chemicals commonly found in water.

1 oz - Treats 60 Gallons
4 oz - Treats 240 Gallons
8 oz - Treats 480 Gallons
16 oz - Treats 960 Gallons
1 Gallon - Treats 7,693 Gallons
5 Gallons - Treats 38,400 Gallons

To avoid confusion it should be recognized that there are two products with the AmQuel name - the original AmQuel which Kordon has been providing since 1985, and the recently invented product AmQuel+ (also referred to as AmQuel Plus) which is based on a much improved new chemical formula. AmQuel+ is the latest development in state-of-the-art water conditioning technology and is far beyond what the original AmQuel product does. AmQuel+ does all that AmQuel does and a significant number of additional tasks as well.

AmQuel+ is a remarkable new discovery that is making fresh and saltwater aquarium and pond keeping much safer and simpler. It is doing this by safely detoxifying natural nitrogen compounds in the water, including nitrites and nitrates that before could not be effectively detoxified. Thereby, the use of AmQuel+ greatly reduces the need for continual water changes and provides far better water conditions for fishes, aquatic invertebrates, and other life in fresh and saltwater.

Seachem Prime is the complete and concentrated conditioner for both fresh and saltwater aquariums. Use during startup and water changes to eliminate and detoxify harmful chemicals in tap water and make your aquarium safe for fish.

Tips: May be added to aquarium directly, but better if added to new water first. If adding directly to aquarium, base dose on aquarium volume. Sulfur odor is normal. For exceptionally high chloramine concentrations, a double dose may be used safely. To detoxify nitrite in an emergency, up to 5 times normal dose may be used.

Seachem StressGuard is a premium slime coat protector for marine and freshwater aquariums. Using a unique formula, StressGuard reduces fish stress from transportation or handling, promotes healing, and acts as an antiseptic to reduce the risk of infection.

• Premium slime coat protection product for fresh and saltwater aquariums
• Reduces stress when handling or transporting fish
• Promotes healing and acts as an antiseptic for fish

StressGuard is compatible with all non-copper based medications. It is not amine-based and will not interfere with Purigen or HyperSorb, and does not coat resins or clog filtration like other slime coat products can.

What sets StressGuard apart? The secret is a protein active colloidal agent that actively seeks out any wounds, abrasions, or exposed proteins, and attaches to the area to deliver disinfectant and begin healing. In the process, the agent also acts as a liquid bandage to keep the abrasion protected. And unlike other slime coats, StressGuard has a pH of 7.0 - meaning it will never interfere with the pH of your aquarium, even when used in large doses.

Directions: Use 1/2–1 capful (2.5–5 mL) to every 10 gallons (40 L) daily until signs of stress have abated or healing is complete. Dose may be safely doubled.
