Microbe-Lift®/AQUA XTREME is a convenient liquid, single-phase, full-function water conditioner that has been scientifically formulated for use in koi and goldfish ponds. Microbe-Lift®/AQUA XTREME should be used when: conditioning new water for ponds; adding (or prior to adding) water, new fish or plants to ponds; and transporting koi and goldfish. It is very important to use Microbe-Lift®/AQUA XTREME when adding water to a pond that contains chloramines. Conventional dechlorinators will detoxify the chlorine in the chloramines but do nothing to the ammonia released from the chloramines. Microbe-Lift®/AQUA XTREME will detoxify both the chlorine and the ammonia in chloramines.

• Detoxifies Nitrite
• Removes & Detoxifies Chlorine & Ammonia
• Destroys Chloramines
• Detoxifies Copper & Heavy Metals
• Boosts Alkalinity
• Adds Essential Electrolytes
• Adds A 3-Part Slime Coat Replacer
• Helps to Reduce Stress
• Instantly Ages Pond Water

MICROBE-LIFT/Stress Relief is not a medication and should not be used as a substitute for any recommended medication. Aloe Vera has been proven to regenerate raw tissue, blood spots and help to replace damaged slime coats. When fish are transported and placed into new environments, stress is generally exhibited. Also, use MICROBE-LIFT/Stress Relief any time fish are sick to accelerate the healing process. Heavy metals in the pond water may be lethal to your fish. MICROBE-LIFT/Stress Relief helps to detoxify the free ions in zinc, copper and iron.

• Detoxifies free ions of heavy metals
• Helps to reduce stress, heal wounds and bruises
• Helps to restore protective slime coat
• Will not affect the ion balance of pH
• Provides additional vitamins and immune supplements
• Heals missing scales
• Minimizes infections

Stress Coat is a unique water conditioner that replaces the natural slime coating on the skin of pond fish when if has been damaged by handling, netting or other forms of stress.

Details:

• Conditions tap water.
• Instantly removes chlorine and heavy metals such as copper and zinc from tap water.
• Contains Aloe Vera to help heal torn fins and skin wounds.
• Prevents the loss of internal fluids & electrolytes.
• Protects damaged tissue of fish against external disease-causing organisms.
• Use when setting up a pond, adding new fish or changing pond water.

• Stabilizes alkalinity
• Replaces lost skin slime
• Aids in the establishment of biological filtration
• Reduces shock and stress
• Removes ammonia, chloramines & chlorine
• Adds essential minerals

Pond·Prep reduces the toxicity of nitrite and provides trace elements needed to establish and maintain biological filtration. Pond·Prep supplies the electrolytes and minerals needed by fishes in new pond water. It adds buffering components to help boost and maintain the necessary acid-neutralizing capacity (alkalinity) of the water.

When used as directed, a single dose of Pond·Prep will remove 1 mg/l of ammonia, up to12.6 mg/l of chloramines, and 3.75 mg/l of total chlorine. Pond·Prep will detoxify up to 1.0 mg/l copper and reduce or eliminate the toxicity of other heavy metals. Pond·Prep's polymers help minimize stress and infection.

Pond·Prep does not interfere with fishes' breathing nor does it reduce dissolved oxygen levels. Pond·Prep does not contain any live bacteria or bacterial spores; it does not contain any phosphates, copper, formaldehyde, plant sap, drugs nor dyes. Pond·Prep will interfere with the proper readings of Nessler-type ammonia test kits; for ammonia testing use a salicylate-type test kit such as Kordon's AquaTru® Ammonia (Salicylate) Test Kit.

For subsequent water changes and water additions use Pond NovAqua® and Pond AmQuel®. Use Pond NovAqua when introducing new fishes to your pond. If fishes suffer extensive bruises or damaged skin and scales after handling, use Kordon's Pond PolyAqua® as a healing aid.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: To properly condition water in either a new pond or a freshly cleaned pond, add the appropriate amount to about 1 gallon of water. Stir to form a slurry and distribute the slurry throughout the pond. Rinse the container to ensure all of the Pond·Prep powder is added to the pond water. For smaller volumes of water (e.g. indoor ponds) add Pond·Prep at the rate of 1 level teaspoonful for each 20 gallons of pond water.
