Reduce ammonia toxicity quickly and protect your fish

This ammonia detoxifier for fish ponds provides a fast and effective way to reduce toxic ammonia levels and protect fish during emergencies.

It helps neutralise toxic ammonia in the water, giving you time to stabilise conditions and prevent further losses.

👉 Ideal for emergency use when fish show signs of stress or ammonia is detected.

When ammonia levels rise, fish can become stressed or die within hours.

What This Product Does

  • Converts toxic ammonia (NH₃) into a less harmful form (NH₄⁺)
  • Helps protect fish during ammonia spikes
  • Also assists in detoxifying nitrite and chlorine
  • Works quickly to reduce immediate risk

👉 Provides rapid relief while you correct the underlying water conditions.

When to Use

  • Fish are gasping, lethargic or behaving abnormally
  • Ammonia test shows elevated levels
  • After overfeeding or high stocking events
  • During water quality emergencies

How to Use

  • Dose according to pond or tank volume (see dosing guide)
  • Add directly to water
  • Ensure good aeration during treatment

🧪 Ammonia Detoxifier Dosing Guide (Typical)

The amount of detoxifier required depends on pond volume and ammonia levels. The table below provides a general guide based on standard dosing rates (approx. 5 mL per 200 L).

Pond Volume Typical Dose Example Use
1,000 L ~25 mL Small tanks or holding systems
5,000 L ~125 mL Small ponds
10,000 L ~250 mL Medium aquaculture ponds
50,000 L ~1.25 L Larger ponds or systems
80,000 L ~2 L Larger ponds or systems

👉 This dosing helps temporarily neutralise toxic ammonia and reduce stress on fish. 250 mL and 2 L are stocked


⚠️ Important:

  • Always follow the product label instructions
  • Detoxifiers reduce toxicity but do not remove the underlying cause
  • Continue aeration and water changes
  • Re-test ammonia levels after treatment

👉 For best results, use together with an ammonia test kit to confirm levels and monitor improvement.

Recommended: Test and Treat Together

For effective results:

  • Test ammonia levels
  • Apply detoxifier if levels are elevated

👉 Using both together allows you to diagnose and act quickly.

Why This Matters

Ammonia is invisible and highly toxic to fish.
By the time symptoms appear, levels may already be dangerous.

👉 Rapid treatment can prevent further losses and reduce stress on your stock.

Important Notes

  • Detoxifiers reduce toxicity but do not remove the underlying cause
  • Continue aeration and perform water changes
  • Re-test ammonia levels after treatment
  • Ongoing monitoring is recommended

Suitable For

  • Aquaculture ponds
  • Fish farms
  • Holding tanks
  • Hatcheries
  • Water quality emergencies

👉 Fast, practical protection when ammonia levels rise.
