Whats blue and protects your fish? 05/06/2007

User recommends the product

Advantages helps to make potentially dangerous water safe
Disadvantages none that i know of

Just one more fishy themed review for the time being, this is another product I whole heartedly recommend that anyone keeping fish should have on hand. As we all know the tap water in the UK is safe for us to drink, but has several chemical additives as well as traces of the metals used in the pipes, among these are chlorine and metal ions, these while harmless to humans and large pets -cats, dogs etc - are not so good for fish in fact can kill them. So while most people know to leave water intended for aquaria to stand for a minium of 24 hours sometimes this just isnt practical so what else ... more

This can help your fish survive a transfer from tank to tank. 17/07/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages Takes away any nasties that might harm or even kill your fish.
Disadvantages none so far!

A friend of mine recently took on someone else's fish as that person was immigrating. However, she did not treat the water in the tank the fish were going to be tranferred into and sadly the two fish died within a week. I too have recently taken on someone else's fish and so decided to see what I could do to give the guest fish the best chance of survival on being transferred from his own tank to his new one. I asked the advice of a helpful lady in my local petshop and she recommended AquaSafe to me which makes tap water safe for fish. This is, according to the bottle, "a new formula which ... more

Keep those fishies in clean water! 21/10/2010

User recommends the product

Advantages Easy way to get the right balance of chems in the water
Disadvantages Nothing

Our small fish tank only has a few danios in it, but they still need looking after, and one of the key things is that the water they live in has to be clean and habitable for them. Our tap water may be fine for us to drink, wash in, etc, but for fish, the mineral elements in the water, especially the chlorination in the cleaning process, can be deadly. To combat this, there are a number of products out there that you can use to 'clean' your water for fish, and one of these is this one, AquaSafe. It's a market leader and comes with a whole heap of recommendations, so we have only ever used this ... more

The aqua in our fish tank is safe thanks to this! 27/03/2013

User recommends the product

Advantages Simple to use, works very well, allows us to use tap water in our tank, good price.
Disadvantages None.

We have a large tropical fish tank in our home having upgraded from a Biorb tank to something over four times the size. This means that we need to undertake maintenance on a regular basis in our fish tank and this is why I use this Tetra Aquasafe. As we change water in our tank twice a week I bought this in a 250ml bottle. Now tap water conditioner is not something that I am brand loyal to when using, I tend to buy what is available at the pet store that I am visiting when I need it and then hope that it is a good quality product that works well. Tap water contains lots of minerals that are ... more

This Could Save Your Fish 18/12/2000

User recommends the product

Advantages Gets rid of dangerous chemicals, may save a fish's life
Disadvantages Isn't a cure all if your fish get these chemicals in their system.

After having our fish tank for close to a year, we've decided to get a new tank, a fifty gallon one. Since we hadn't cleaned our current ten gallon tank in months, we decided to spend Saturday doing so. Never in my life did I think cleaning our tank would kill our fish but that's what ended up happening. We lost three tetras and a pleco. Puzzled, and very worried about our two Angels, we payed a late night (1 a.m.) visit to Wal-Mart searching for a remedy. We bought a PH test kit and also AquaSafe thinking that in our 100% water change (Don't ever do this!), we might have chemicals in the tank ... more

A few blue drops saves your fishes 13/02/2001

User recommends the product

Advantages saves your fish, easy to use, don't need much
Disadvantages none at all

I kept coldwater fish years ago, and we always added AquaSafe to the water. It is a thick blue liquid that neutralises all the metal ions/chlorine/chemicals in your tap water, making it safe to go in your tank. You add 5ml per 10 litres/2 gallons. It acts by neutralising the chemicals in the water, and also by coating the fish with a layer to protect them from bumps, abrasions and infections. It also contains vitamin B1 which reduces the stress in a fish tank. The product is not expensive, about £1.35 for 30ml (6 water changes). I have just visited our pet shop and bought a small goldfish ... more

Tetra AquaSafe 24/02/2001

User recommends the product

Advantages Makes tap water suitable for fish
Disadvantages Dont use too much

Tetra Aquasafe Is designed to do several things for your fish: · Removes Toxic Chlorine & Chloramines · Adds Protective Coating for Fish · Neutralizes Heavy Metals Aquasafe makes tap water harmless to use for fish water. Ordinary tap water contains chemicals and metals that can damage fish. They are harmed by rapid changes in pH, temperature, etc which can result from water changing. Most fish owners rely on tap water when setting up an aquarium or when doing partial water changes. Tap water has had many chemicals added to kill bacteria (good and bad bacteria). Because these chemicals are ... more
