Aquaforest pH Minus Pond 1 – 5L

Description

Aquaforest pH Minus Pond 1 – 5L

Aquaforest pH Minus Pond 1 – 5L is a specialized water-treatment preparation designed to lower excessively high pH and carbonate hardness (KH) in garden ponds.

Maintaining an appropriate pH level is essential for fish health and overall biological balance. Excessively high pH can increase the toxicity of ammonia, potentially creating stressful and unsafe conditions for pond fish.

AF pH Minus Pond provides a convenient way to gradually adjust water parameters and restore more favorable conditions for fish, aquatic plants, and other aquatic organisms.

Its phosphate-free formula is designed to adjust pH without unnecessarily disturbing the chemical balance of the water.

Key Features

  • Effectively lowers pH and carbonate hardness (KH)
  • Helps restore stable pond water conditions
  • Helps reduce the risks associated with excessively high pH and increased ammonia toxicity
  • Allows for controlled, gradual pH adjustment
  • Phosphate-free formula
  • Suitable for ponds containing fish and aquatic plants
  • Supports a healthy biological balance
  • Easy to measure and dose
  • 1 L treats up to 10,000 L of water, depending on water conditions

Benefits

🐟 Supports Fish Health

Excessively high pH can increase ammonia toxicity. Maintaining a more appropriate pH level helps create safer and more favorable conditions for pond fish.

⚖️ Helps Stabilize Water Parameters

AF pH Minus Pond lowers pH and KH, helping bring water parameters back toward desired levels.

💧 Controlled Adjustment

The product is designed for gradual dosing, allowing you to adjust pH carefully while minimizing stress to fish and avoiding sudden changes in water chemistry.

🌿 Suitable for Aquatic Life

When used according to the recommended instructions, the product is suitable for ponds containing fish, aquatic plants, and other aquatic organisms.

🚫 Phosphate-Free

The formula contains no phosphates, helping you adjust pH without adding unwanted phosphate to the pond water.

How to Use

Before application, measure the current pH level of the pond water.

  1. Determine the current pH using a suitable water test.
  2. Measure the required amount of AF pH Minus Pond.
  3. Dilute the product in pond water outside the pond.
  4. Apply the diluted solution gradually.
  5. Monitor the pH level and make adjustments slowly.
  6. Never reduce the pH by more than 0.5 units per day to help prevent fish stress and environmental instability.

Important: Do Not Apply Directly to the Pond

AF pH Minus Pond should be diluted in pond water outside the pond before application.

Dosage

Recommended dosage:
1 ml per 1 L of water lowers the pH by approximately 1 pH unit.

However, the actual effect depends on the hardness and buffering capacity of the pond water.

Maximum Daily Adjustment

Do not lower the pH by more than 0.5 units per day.

Gradual adjustment is important to help prevent unnecessary stress to fish and sudden changes in the aquatic environment.

Important Information

  • Not intended for consumption.
  • Keep out of reach of children.
  • Store in a cool place.
  • Do not apply the undiluted product directly to the pond.
