Fritz A.C.C.R.

Simply getting your aquarium system “cycled,” and by all appearances “established,” does not mean that certain potentially deadly water quality issues cannot arise from time to time. Being as aquaria are closed biological systems, certain dissolved waste products can accumulate. As dead algae, fish excretions, uneaten food etc. decompose, nitrogenous compounds such as ammonia are produced. Ammonia is extremely toxic to all aquatic animals and is likely responsible for most aquarium fish death. Ammonia concentrations tend to climb freely in new aquariums; ammonia can even spike in mature systems if overfeeding, new livestock or if the pumps fail or if populations of the nitrifying bacteria are lost after the use of certain medications or sudden change in water parameters. Spikes in ammonia concentration are particularly likely to take place shortly following major accidental overfeedings, death/decomposition of large dead animals (e.g. sea anemones), physical disruptions to the biological filter, etc. Not only does Fritz A.C.C.R. neutralize ammonia but it also removes chlorine and chloramines found in tap water. In this respect, it is a complete water conditioner that should be on your shelf at all times. This product does not alter pH or deplete oxygen levels. It is extremely safe even if overdosed. Don’t be left empty-handed in the face of your next ammonia emergency!
