Water Conditioner
A chemical additive that neutralises chlorine, chloramine, and heavy metals in tap water - protecting fish from municipal water contaminants.
Price: Budget
For: Both Essential gear $8-$60
📖 Overview
Municipal tap water contains chlorine or chloramine that kills bacteria - and gills. Never add untreated tap water to a fish tank. Water conditioners (Seachem Prime, API Stress Coat, Kordon NovAqua) neutralise chlorine, break the chloramine bond, and detoxify heavy metals. Prime uniquely also detoxifies ammonia and nitrite for up to 48 hours - a lifesaver during new tank cycles.
