Live
Bearer Salt™ is a blend of specific salts designed
to accurately duplicate the natural environment of live
bearing and brackish water fish. Unlike other aquarium
salts currently available to the hobbyist, Live Bearer
Salt™ is more than just a simple sodium chloride
product. These other salts can burn leaves and roots
in a planted aquarium. However, Live Bearer Salt™
does not cause this type of damage, and actually provides
many nutrients crucial to healthy plant growth. Dosing
of Live Bearer Salt™ allows for specific duplication
of different brackish water environments found worldwide
(such as the waters of Sumatra or the waters of Borneo).
Live Bearer Salt™ can also be dosed for general
brackish water community aquariums and general freshwater
community aquarium. Live Bearer Salt™ is a safe
and effective alternative to the sodium chloride based
aquarium salts so prevalent on the market today.

DIRECTIONS:
Use when setting up an aquarium and when making
water changes. To add salt to an established tank,
do so gradually. It is best to predissolve the
salt in freshwater before use. Avoid using salt
when simply replacing evaporated water.
For live bearers (such as guppies, swordtails,
platies, some mollies), use 20 g (~1 tablespoon)
for each 10 gallons (40 L).
For estuary fish from the Yucatan or Sri
Lanka (Archers, Chromides, some mollies),
use 15 g (~2 teaspoons) for each 3 gallons
(12 L).
For estuary fish from Thailand, Cambodia,
Borneo, or Sumatra (Datinoides), use 40
g (~2 tablespoons) per 3 gallons (12 L).
For scats, use up to 80 g (~4 tablespoons)
per 3 gallons (12 L). This dose is not for
planted aquaria.
For mixed populations, use an average dose,
representative of species present. For specific
information on your fish, check with your
dealer or reference an atlas.
For general aquarium salt use (either for
mineral replacement or disease control),
use 20 g (~1 tablespoon) for each 10 gallons
(40 L). |
