MICROBE-LIFT®/Aqua XTreme is a full-function, buffered water conditioner for koi and goldfish ponds. It ages pond water instantly, so fish can go into freshly filled water rather than waiting on it.
What it does
- Removes and detoxifies chlorine and ammonia
- Destroys chloramines — both halves of the bond, not just the chlorine
- Detoxifies nitrite
- Detoxifies copper and heavy metals
- Three-part slime coat replacement
- Adds essential electrolytes and boosts alkalinity
Dosage
- 1 tsp (5 mL) per 10 gallons, or for larger volumes 1 fl oz per 60 gallons.
- For ammonia: repeat the full dose for each 1 mg/L of measured total ammonia, or part thereof.
- 32 oz treats up to 1,920 gallons · 1 gallon treats up to 7,680 gallons.
Two things that catch people out
- It gives false readings on Nessler ammonia test kits and interferes with Winkler dissolved-oxygen tests. If you dose this and then test ammonia with a Nessler kit, the alarming number you get is the reagent, not your pond. Use a salicylate kit instead.
- Do not use with permanganate or chlorite-based treatments, and leave 48 hours between this and other pond treatments.
