Overview

*Safe and effective multipurpose tap water conditioner for use with freshwater and marine aquariums
*Instantly neutralizes toxic chlorine, chloramines and heavy metals while helping to reduce aquarium fish stress
*Provides a replacement slime coat for aquarium fish and helps enhance aquarium biofiltration

Multipurpose water conditioner for creating a healthier environment for your aquarium inhabitants. Fritz Aquatics FritzGuard Water Conditioner quickly neutralizes toxic chlorine, chloramines, and heavy metals in tap water while reducing fish stress and promoting aquarium biological filtration. Added aloe vera, Vitamin E, and electrolytes replace damaged slime coat and aid fish osmoregulation to promote healing and reduce fish stress caused by sudden changes in the environment. FritzGuard Water Conditioner also enhances biofiltration by producing a slime coat over the filter media, aiding in the attachment of beneficial bacteria. For use with freshwater and marine aquariums. 16 oz treats 960 gallons.

Directions & Dosage
Use 1 tsp (5 ml) per 10 U.S. gallons (38 L). For best results, add FritzGuard to tap water before adding water to aquarium. For marine aquariums, turn off protein skimmer for 6 hours after adding FritzGuard to reduce foaming if a concern. For areas with very high chlorine levels, dosage can be safely increased or repeated up to 5x.
