Product Description
Seachem Amguard detoxifies toxic Ammonia for 48 hours. High levels of Ammonia can be lethal to fish.
Seachem AmGuard
Detoxifies Ammonia for up to 48 hours
Ideal for emergency situations
More effective than any other ammonia-binding product
Most concentrated product on the market
AmGuard safely, rapidly and efficiently removes toxic free ammonia. It is safe to use during tank cycling and is ideal for treating emergency situations.
AmGuard is the strongest liquid ammonia binder on the market. It works within minutes to detoxify free ammonia, and it doesn’t degrade for nearly forty-eight hours. That’s nearly twice as long as our competitor's products.
Unlike competing products, AmGuard converts it into a safe, non-toxic form that is readily removed by the tank’s biofilter. It does not alter pH.
Ammonia can exist in two forms: free and ionised. It is only the free form that is toxic.
Traditional ammonia test kits convert all ammonia to free ammonia by raising pH to 12–14; at this pH AmGuard cannot function and thus a false positive reading will result.
For long term ammonia control, use Seachem Stability and Matrix. Use Ammonia Alert or MultiTest: Free & Total Ammonia to directly monitor levels of free ammonia. AmGuard also removes chlorine and chloramines.
Directions
Use 1 capful (5 mL) for every 200 L (50 US gallons) daily or as needed to reduce ammonia.
ADVANCED:
If you have an Ammonia Alert that is reading “Alert”, then use 1 capful (5 mL) for every 400 L (100 gallons) daily.
If it reads “Alarm”, then use 1 capful for every 200 L (50 gallons) daily.
If it reads “Toxic”, then use 1 capful for every 80 L (20 gallons) daily.
EXPERT:
If using our MultiTest: Free & Total Ammonia test kit, use 1 capful (5 mL) for every 40 L (10 gallons) to remove 1 mg/L (ppm) of free ammonia.
Alternatively you may employ the following formula for a variety of ammonia and water levels: 0.125AV=m (for volume in litres) or 0.5AV=m (for volume in gallons).
A=ammonia concentration in mg/L, V=the volume of water being treated and m=the volume of AmGuard to use in mL. For example, to remove 1 mg/L of ammonia in 100 gallons you would use 0.5*1*100=50 mL.
If water temperature is above 30 °C (86 °F) do not use.

Finally, its white color makes it easy to see the algae you want to remove and when you’ve effectively removed it.
Ergonomic handle allows for easy use in multiple positions
Retractable blade housing safely hides blade while not is use.
White design contrasts with algae so you can see what you are removing
Floats for easy retrieval
Handle hole for hanging storage
Sizes: 6 inches (15 cm), 12 inches (31 cm), 18 inches (46 cm)
Product Description
The Seachem Algae Pads are non-scratch algae pads for glass & acrylic. The melamine foam uses micro abrasive technology to easily remove algae from the sides of your aquarium. They are particularly effective at removing algae from scratches. They are chemically inert and do not use soaps or detergents. Their white color contrasts against dark algae making it easier to see when areas are fully clean.
More on Melamine
Melamine foam is incredibly effective abrasive cleaner. It has a microstructure as hard as glass, but because of its open-cell structure it remains flexible. It performs on stains a lot like extremely fine sandpaper. In the aquarium, it easily removes algae by scraping with its extremely hard microscopic filaments.
Sizes: 4.5" x 1" x 2.5" (3 Pack)
Product Description
The ideal water pH for Axolotls is 7.4-7.6. Seachem Axolotl Buffer™ adjusts pH to 7.4–7.6 from either a low or high pH. It softens water by precipitating calcium and magnesium. Safe and effective for use with all Axolotls. Use Axolotl Conditioner™ for removal of chlorine and chloramine and detoxifying ammonia. Use Fresh Trace™ to restore the proper level of trace elements.

Product Description
Reef Reactor™ is a high-purity source of aragonite, which supplies all important elements for optimal ionic balance and robust coral growth and coloration in reef aquaria. It has a grain size of approximately 1-3 cm. (Reef Reactor™ Md is 0.5 - 1 cm). It is intended for use in calcium reactors where it is dissolved slowly with the addition of CO2. As it dissolves, it provides calcium, magnesium, strontium, potassium, and carbonates among other important elements for reef aquaria. It is excellent at increasing and stabilizing alkalinity, which also supports a stable pH and encourages the rapid formation of coral skeletal material. With high levels of both calcium and magnesium, it offers an excellent means of balanced supplementation for rapid growth and propagation of corals and calcareous animals in reef aquaria. It possesses the highest level of soluble potassium of all competing brands while exhibiting the lowest levels of both aluminum and phosphorus.
Direction:
Rinse Reef Reactor™ prior to initial placement in your calcium reactor. The rate of water flow through the reactor in conjunction with the pH of the water inside the reactor will control the rate of media dissolution. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions furnished with the calcium reactor and adjust the rates of water flow and CO2 injection to attain the desired concentrations of calcium and alkalinity in the effluent.

Product Description
Pond Salt™ is a chemically sound blend of salts designed to replicate the native ionic environment of goldfish and koi without adversely impacting on pond plants when used at the recommended dosage. It can also be useful to temporarily reduce nitrite toxicity in an emergency situation. It does not impact pH. For pH control, use Pond Acid Buffer™ or Pond pH Buffer™.
Pond Salt™ is more than just a simple sodium chloride product. Other salts can burn leaves and roots in a planted pond. However, Pond Salt™ does not cause this type of damage, and actually provides many nutrients crucial to healthy plant growth. Pond Salt™ is a safe and effective alternative to the sodium chloride based pond salts so prevalent.
Product Description
Pond Matrix™ is a high porosity biomedia that provides efficient biofiltration for the removal of nitrogenous waste in ponds. Plastic bio-materials provide only external surface area, whereas Pond Matrix™ provides internal macroporous surface area. These macropores are ideally sized for the support of nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria. This allows Pond Matrix™, unlike other forms of biomedia, to remove nitrate along with ammonia and nitrite, simultaneously and in the same filter. Pond Matrix™ is completely inert and will not breakdown. It need not be replaced. It is also more suitable for use as a clean soil replacement for growing pond plants. Use 1–2 Liters of Pond Matrix™ for each 100 US gallons. Since the majority of the bacteria are internal, Pond Matrix™ may be rinsed when needed without damaging the filter. Pond Matrix™ is compatible with all types of wet or wet-dry filters.
Product Description
Seachem Zeolite™ is a naturally occurring, highly-porous mineral that binds ammonia and heavy metals through an ion exchange mechanism. It has the highest ammonia binding capacity of any available zeolite; ten times higher than some products and twice the capacity of the closest competitor. It won’t deplete calcium in saltwater, and it won’t increase general hardness in freshwater, where the ionic strength is low.
Sizes: 100 mL, 250 mL, 500 mL, 1 L, 2 L, 4 L
Direction:
For best results, Seachem Zeolite™ should be rinsed before use and placed so as to maximize the flow of water through it but not so that it tumbles against itself in flow. It may be used in a canister filter, media chamber, box filter, or any high flow area of a trickle filter. Use of a filter bag such as Seachem’s The Bag™ or Zip Bag™ is recommended.
Use 250 mL (1 cup) of Seachem Zeolite™ for every 200 L (50 US gallons). For smaller aquariums, the equivalent dose is 5 mL (1 level teaspoon) per 4 L (1 US gallon). This amount of Seachem Zeolite™ will remove up to 0.5 mg/L ammonia. Monitor ammonia levels, which should drop to zero within 24-48 hours. At this point, the zeolite can be removed or replaced with activated carbon, such as Seachem MatrixCarbon™. For heavy metals removal, leave in service and replace monthly. For long term ammonia control, use Seachem Stability® and Matrix™.
