FAQs
FAQs
See below for frequently asked questions regarding FritzPond Complete.
-
Should I worry about nitrate?
Although nitrate does not represent a direct health threat to most fish, high levels are still undesirable. Apart from encouraging unsightly algal growth, it is now believed that high nitrate levels are implicated in some fish diseases. In nature, the fate of most nitrate would be assimilation by plants to produce organic nitrogen compounds as part of the nitrogen cycle. Nitrates are removed from the aquarium by regular water changes.
-
Can this be overdosed?
The dosage of FritzPond Complete Water Conditioner can be increased by up to 5x the recommended amount. If a higher dose is added to the tank, ensure the aquarium is well aerated and monitor the dissolved oxygen levels.
-
Can I use this in an aquarium?
Yes, it is safe to use in an aquarium. However, due to its concentrated formula, extra care must be taken not to overdose. We recommend it for water volumes of 50 gallons minimum.
-
How long should I wait after treating water to add to tank?
Treated water can be added to the pond immediately after mixing with FritzPond Complete.
