Product Description

API TURTLE SLUDGE DESTROYER Aquarium Cleaner and Sludge Remover Treatment reduces build-up of turtle waste and consumes aquarium/vivarium sludge, which is typically a build-up of organic matter that degrades water quality and clogs pumps and filters. API TURTLE SLUDGE DESTROYER uses natural beneficial bacteria as active ingredient to break down turtle waste, eliminate odors, and reduce overall aquarium/vivarium maintenance. Use weekly and when changing water. With API Aquarium products, it’s easy to keep a beautiful saltwater, freshwater or reef aquarium. For over 50 years, API has been creating innovative, research-driven solutions that make it easier to care for your fish and aquarium. API Aquarium Treatment Supplies are designed to work in conjunction with each other to provide best results, promote healthy bacterial growth and help control and cure fish diseases and conditions such as ich and fin rot. They work to provide a safe, hospitable environment for fish such as tropical community fish, cichlids, goldfish and more. With API, you can spend more time admiring your fish, and less time scrubbing your tank. Make sure to use all products as directed in order to ensure the best results.
