Tap water can contain chemicals that put pond fish at risk, while fish waste and leftover food can affect water quality over time. API Pond Aqua Essential is made for treating water when starting or maintaining a pond, and for addressing high ammonia readings on a water test. Its range of targeted compounds makes it relevant to both tap-water treatment and ongoing pond care.

What does API Pond Aqua Essential treat?

It treats tap water by removing chlorine and chloramines and neutralizing heavy metals, and it removes ammonia, nitrites and nitrates from pond water. The conditioner works instantly, helping reduce the risk of fish loss when a pond is started or maintained. These treatments address different water concerns: chlorine, chloramines and heavy metals may cause gill and tissue damage, breathing difficulty and stress, while ammonia can be harmful even at low levels and fatal at high levels.

• Made for ponds with koi and other fish.
• Useful when test results show high ammonia.

Why address ammonia, nitrites and nitrates?

Ammonia enters pond water through fish gills, urine and solid waste; uneaten food and decaying organic matter also add to it. API Pond Aqua Essential removes ammonia, nitrites and nitrates to help restore a healthy aquatic environment. Nitrites can interfere with respiration and suppress the immune system at low levels, and high levels can cause suffocation. Nitrates can harm fish and contribute to algae growth.

• Targets waste-related compounds as well as tap-water chemicals.
• Designed for use when ammonia test results are high.
