IT ALL STARTS WITH WATER QUALITY
There are two main categories that define water quality and
its suitability for your fish:
1) what your tap water consists of, and
2) its biological stability and its contribution
to a clean and healthy aquatic environment.
Nutrafin offers three essential water conditioners that
provide a comprehensive solution to ensure a healthy aquatic
environment.
Aqua Plus is designed to make tap water safe for fish. Cycle
and Waste Control are two biological supplements that
neutralize invisible lethal nitrogen compounds and effectively
reduce and control organic waste.
All three conditioners deliver many important benefits, such
as less maintenance, conditions that support desirable oxygen
levels and a cleaner more stable aquatic environment.
AQUA PLUS
Removes Chlorine and Chloramine
Neutralizes Heavy Metals
Protects and Heals
Patented Stress-Reducing Formula
Aqua Plus instantly neutralizes chlorine, chloramines and
dissolved harmful metals in tap water that can be toxic to fish and
often impairs their natural resistance levels, leaving them more
prone to disease. Aqua Plus is the only water conditioner to contain
P.H.E, a patented compound, which also includes Valerian Root,
proven to reduce stress in a natural way, as well as additional
elements to help prevent infections due to abrasions and scrapes.
CYCLE
Reduces Fish Loss
Rapidly Establishes New Aquariums
Prevents Toxic Biological Conditions
Highly Concentrated Responsive Formula
Cycle metabolizes ammonia and nitrite, two invisible nitrogenous
compounds that are produced by fish in aquariums. As food is
consumed by fish, as more fish are added to an aquarium and
especially in new aquarium set-ups, an effective biological
supplement is highly beneficial in establishing biological stability
for ammonia and nitrite-free water.
A proven conditioner for the last 20 years, Cycle has continuously
been refined to be a highly responsive and effective treatment. Our
latest formulation includes flocs, visible bio-colloids that harbor
huge populations of dormant, highly-effective, nitrifying bacteria
that rapidly activate when introduced to the aquarium. These
desirable micro-organisms are fully capable of quickly metabolizing
large concentrations of toxic ammonia and nitrite, providing the
safe and stable biological habitat that fish absolutely require.
CONSISTENT PERFORMANCE
Effective water conditioners are essential for maintaining
a healthy and vibrant aquarium. They prevent undesirable
water conditions, improve water quality and are often directly
responsible for avoiding fish loss.
Did you know, for example, that when adding tap water to
an aquarium, it should be treated with a water conditioner to
neutralize harmful chlorine, chloramines, and dissolved metals?
Chlorine is an effective oxidant commonly used in bleaching and
disinfectants. Just imagine what it could do to the sensitive life
sustaining gills and protective membranes of your fish.
Because an aquarium is a closed system, it’s subject to changes
that can harm the life within. Fish excrement, for instance,
diminishes water quality and must be treated with efficient
filtration, regular partial water changes and quality water
conditioners.
Fish and plants thrive in optimal water conditions, and Nutrafin
water treatments are the key to providing a stable aquatic
habitat, precisely what your fish and plants need.
The Nutrafin water conditioning program delivers a full line of
water care products that are developed, refined, manufactured
and packaged in advanced production and laboratory facilities
that are second to none.
Our water treatments originate from one source only, and a
tightly controlled manufacturing process ensures that a top
quality product is delivered every time. The Nutrafin permanent
stability program employs strict quality control measures to
ensure consistent product performance all the way from raw
materials to finished water conditioners in every single bottle.
WASTE CONTROL
Reduces Aquarium Maintenance
Rapidly Reduces Organic Waste
Supports Healthy Aquarium Conditions
Waste Control consumes visible organic waste and
effectively supports superior biological action.
In addition to supporting the actions of Cycle, Waste Control
helps rid aquariums of organic waste, establishing conditions
that favor superior oxygen levels while effectively reducing
aquarium maintenance.
Aquariums containing large fish with big appetites, many fish
and heavily planted aquariums that make physical removal of
organic waste difficult or impossible, will really benefit from
regular dosing of Waste Control.
