Hikari Pond Solutions Ultimate Application Rates |
---|
Directions - To fully condition water for (1) new aquariums or ponds (2) after or during water additions, or (3) before adding new fish, amphibians, invertebrates or plants, add 1 teaspoonful (5 mL) of Ultimate® per 10 gallons of water. For larger applications use the following dosage: 1 oz per 60 gallons of water. |
Recommendations - Perform regular water changes to keep the alkalinity (acid-neutralizing capacity) and pH stable. Use Ultimate® as needed to eliminate and control ammonia at the regular dosage rate for each 1 mg/L, or fraction therefore of measured total ammonia or for each 0.85 mg/L of measured total ammonia-nitrogen. Use a salicylate (indolphenol) type total ammonia test kit. For dissolved-oxygen (DO) testing use either a DO meter or an indigocarmine test. May be used at the regular dosage to stop or destroy permanganate treatments. |
Contraindications - Do not use with permanganate-based or chlorate-based treatments. Nessler's total ammonia test will give false, high (or off scale) readings. Winkler dissolved oxygen tests will give false, low (or zero) readings. |
