Seachem Pond Salt – Pet Supply UAE

Maintain a healthy and thriving pond environment for your goldfish and koi with Seachem Pond Salt, a chemically sound blend specifically designed to replicate their native ionic habitat. Unlike harsh sodium chloride-based salts that can damage pond plants, this unique formula ensures no adverse impact on your aquatic vegetation when used at the recommended dosage. Beyond general well-being, Pond Salt offers crucial support by temporarily reducing nitrite toxicity during emergencies, providing a vital lifeline for your fish without affecting pH levels. For dedicated pH control, consider Seachem’s Pond Acid Buffer or Pond pH Buffer.

Seachem Pond Salt stands out as a safe and effective alternative, delivering essential nutrients that are vital for robust plant growth, preventing the leaf and root burn commonly associated with other salt products. When setting up a new pond or performing water changes, use 100g (5 tablespoons) per 200 L (50 US gallons) to achieve 0.5 ppt salinity. For semi-annual maintenance, a dose of 250g (12.5 tablespoons) per 200 L is recommended. In emergencies involving nitrite toxicity, apply 1 kg (3 US cups) per 200 L, ensuring a water change follows once the toxicity subsides. Always add salt gradually to established ponds, dissolving it beforehand if direct contact with fish is unavoidable, and avoid adding salt when only replacing evaporated water to prevent build-up.
