Ammonium Chloride

Dry Ammonium Chloride

Easily feed your nitrifying bacteria to establish a robust, healthy biological filter
  • Supports nitrifying bacteria during a fishless cycle
  • Highly concentrated, great for large systems
  • Works for freshwater or saltwater cycling
  • Pure ammonium chloride, no scents or dangerous additives

Overview

Establishing a healthy biological filter is essential to every aquatic system. Fritz Pro Ammonium Chloride eliminates the guesswork of other ammonia sources such as fish food or other organic materials. When using Fritz Pro Ammonium Chloride, there is also no need to put any livestock in potential danger to start a system. As a pure ammonia source, easily feed your nitrifying bacteria to establish a robust, healthy biological filter.

Directions

  1. Add Ammonium Chloride along with nitrifying bacteria, like FritzZyme or Turbo Start
  2. Monitor ammonia and nitrite levels daily
  3. Redose if ammonia level reaches zero -AND- you are not ready to introduce livestock

Dose for new systems

Use 4.5 g (approximately 1 level tsp) per 100 U.S. gallons (380 L). This dose will create an ammonia concentration of approximately 4 ppm. DO NOT USE WHEN LIVESTOCK IS PRESENT.

Notes

Fritz Pro Ammonium Chloride is to be used when performing a fishless cycle. Add required amount of Fritz Pro Ammonium Chloride to reach desired ammonia level (Fritz recommends 2-4 ppm). After adding ammonia add FritzZyme Nitrifying Bacteria and test daily. Once ammonia and nitrite levels are reading zero, livestock can be safely added. Continue to monitor ammonia and nitrite on a regular basis.

  • DO NOT USE FISHLESS FUEL IN ANY SYSTEM CONTAINING LIVESTOCK. DO NOT ADD ANY ANIMALS TO A SYSTEM THAT HAS MEASURABLE AMMONIA OR NITRITE.
