Get your tropical aquarium off to the best start with API QUICK START, STRESS COAT, and API AQUARIUM SALT. The unique, patented nitrifying bacteria in API QUICK START are scientifically proven to quickly consume ammonia and nitrite to help prevent fish loss in a new aquarium or when adding fish by allowing immediate addition of fish to your tank. API STRESS COAT treats your tap water, and provides a safe environment for freshwater fish instantly and easily. Tap water contains chlorine, chloramines and ammonia which can cause gill and tissue damage, breathing difficulty, stress and possibly fish loss. API STRESS COAT works instantly as a water conditioner to remove chlorine and chloramines from tap water and neutralize heavy metals. A lack of electrolytes in freshwater aquariums may cause serious health problems for fish. API AQUARIUM SALT supplies electrolytes to improve fish respiration. Made from evaporated sea water, API AQUARIUM SALT is a natural fish tonic with natural active ingredients. API AQUARIUM SALT promotes the overall health of your fish by improving their gill function and reducing stress in a freshwater aquarium. This all-natural salt provides the essential electrolytes fish need for the uptake of oxygen and release of carbon dioxide and ammonia through the gills.
