 Pond
Salt™ is a chemically sound blend of salts
designed to replicate the native ionic environment
of goldfish and koi without adversely impacting on
pond plants when used at the recommended dosage.
It can also be useful to temporarily reduce nitrite
toxicity in an emergency situation. It does not impact
pH. For pH control, use Pond Acid Buffer™ or
Pond pH Buffer™.
Sizes:
1 kg, 2 kg, 4 kg, 20 L |

DIRECTIONS:
When setting up a pond and when making water
changes: 100 g (5 tablespoons) for each 200
L (50 US gallons). This amount will yield 0.5
ppt. Once every 6 months: 250 g (12.5 tablespoons)
for each 200 L (50 US gallons). For emergency
relief of nitrite toxicity: 1 kg (3 US cups)
for each 200 L (50 US gallons). Once nitrite
toxicity has subsided a water change should
be initiated to reduce salinity. (Please note:
nitrite levels do not fall, only the toxicity
to the fish). The presence of high levels of
nitrite indicates a problem with the biofilter.
Use Pond Stability™ to restore and maintain
the pond biofilter. NOTE: To add salt to an
established pond, do so gradually. Add in an
area unlikely to attract fish attention (to
avoid ingestion). If this cannot be avoided
then it is best to dissolve the salt in freshwater
before use. Do not use salt when replacing
evaporated water. If following the 6 month
regimen you must perform regular water changes
to avoid salt build up. This product is not
recommended for new ponds or water changes
if source water already has a salinity above
1.0 ppt.
