Most dechlorinators on the market today have no effect on the highly toxic chloramine in city water. When this tap water is added to an aquarium, the chloramine kills fish, corals, and live plants. A chemical reaction then gives off deadly ammonia, which gives fish little chance of survival. REMOVES AMMONIA is the safe and easy way to neutralize these harmful toxins in freshwater or saltwater environments. This product instantly protects fish and invertebrates by quickly eliminating all forms of chlorine, chloramine, ammonia, and heavy metals. REMOVES AMMONIA significantly increases the number of fish and aquatic life that you can safely keep in temporary containers, such as small aquariums and clear plastic shipping bags. The product leaves aquarium water fresh, clean, and perfectly safe for all fish and aquatic life. This non-toxic formula is phosphate and formaldehyde free, safe for all aquatic life, and will not interfere with pH levels or biological cycle. REMOVES AMMONIA is also great for treating ammonia build-up in goldfish, turtle, or newt tanks, as well as small bowls, desk-top aquariums, and all tropical fish systems.
Testing for ammonia is extremely important. Ammonia will be elevated during a new tank cycle, but can also be elevated in established aquariums if you do not maintain the aquarium. If you do not change the water regularly, fail to clean the filters, overstock the tank, or use medication that disrupts the biological cycle, ammonia levels can increase. Test immediately anytime you have a sick or dead fish. Ammonia is measured at parts per million (ppm). Aquarium water quality is critical to the health of tank inhabitants. Lethal levels of ammonia can accumulate very rapidly in the absence of true nitrifying bacteria. The ideal ammonia reading should register at “0”. If ammonia is present in the aquarium, fish may exhibit the following symptoms: rapid gill movement, clamped fins, bacterial infections, and death.

Directions
Use 10 drops of REMOVES AMMONIA per one gallon of aquarium water. You can increase or repeat the dosage as needed without toxic effects to plants and aquatic life, including reef systems with live rock. One teaspoon (5ml) of REMOVES AMMONIA per 10 gallons of water will detoxify 1 ppm ammonia, 3.2 ppm chloramines, or 2.1 ppm of chlorine.
Corrective Action for
Various Ammonia Levels
You normally see the ammonia level rise during the cycling period of a new aquarium. Do not try to lower the ammonia if you are cycling a new tank by using REMOVES AMMONIA. By doing so, you are only preventing the cycling process from taking place. By using a nitrifying bacteria product, such as ADDS BENEFICIAL BACTERIA, you can help lower the ammonia without disrupting the cycle of the aquarium.
• 0.5-1 ppm. Reduce feeding, clean filter, and
siphon gravel to remove excess dirt and debris. Add recommended dosage of REMOVES AMMONIA and use ADDS BENEFICIAL BACTERIA to help lower the ammonia level.
• 2-3 ppm. Temporarily stop feeding and
perform a 25% water change. Clean filter and siphon gravel to remove excess dirt and debris. Add recommended dosage of REMOVES AMMONIA and use ADDS BENEFICIAL BACTERIA to help lower the ammonia level.
• 4-5 ppm. Follow preceding steps and complete
a 50% water change. Consult a local fish store for advice on correcting imbalance.
Caution
Keep out of reach of children. Not for human or drug use. Not for use on fish intended for human consumption. REMOVES AMMONIA is not a medication and is not intended to be a substitute for any chemo-therapeutic agent. This product may reduce medication dyes such as malachite green, methylene blue, and potassium permanganate. REMOVES AMMONIA is compatible with ammonia test kits using Salicylate reagents.
Do not use with test kits based on Nessler reagents.
