Questions
Explanation for rotten egg smell? I just opened a new bottle that seemed to possibly have a tiny leak, but the worse part was the strong smell of rotten eggs after opening it. Is this normal for this chemical?
- It is normal to have somewhat of a rotten egg smell.
Helpful?
Can I add this to the aquarium while it is cycling or does that affect the process?
- Hey there! This Ammonia Neutralizer is intended to be used after the tank has went through the Nitrate Cycle.
Helpful?
Am I supposed to get lower ammonia levels after using this?
- Hi there! It will help break down and control ammonia, but you still need to do proper water changes and cut back on the feeding.
Helpful?
Should this be used instead of your water conditioner when I do water changes or should I continue to use water conditioner and use this if there is an ammonia spike?
- Aqueon Ammonia Neutralizer can be used along with your normal water conditioner to reduce ammonia build before you have a spike. It neutralizes chlorine in tap water and reduces ammonia levels that rise naturally in a fish tank from.the accumulation of fish waste and the breakdown of uneaten food.
Helpful?
my bottle leaked all over my counter.. smell will not come out? what should i do? is it dangerous to inhale in large quantities?
- Please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-888-255-4527.
Helpful?
Can this be used along with Microbe-Lift Nite Out II - Starter bacteria that removes ammonia and nitrate?
- We recommend that you use one or the other, not both.
Helpful?
Can you put this when the fish are in the water or do I have to take them out.. I need help it my first time.
- Yes. This is intended to be used while the fish are in the tank.
Helpful?
Need an freshwater ammonia test that is saliclate based, not nessler reagents, Anyone know where I can find this?
- Yes, ammonia neutralizers convert ammonia (NH3) into a less toxic compound ammonium (NH4) and many of the ammonia test kits measure for both NH3 & NH4, which would not help you if you are using an ammonia neutralizer. Hagen has one that differentiates between the two. I'd personally be cautious using any of the test strips as they are not as accurate as the liquid test kits.
Helpful?
How often can I put Aqueon Ammonia Neutralizer, every day?, every week? My ammonia and nitrate, nitrite levels are high. Can I put this product daily?
- It can be done once a day but don’t do it for an extended period of time. If the ammonia level remains high for a long period of time then there is something wrong with the aquarium. Usually it is a matter of the tank having too many fish in it too soon or just too many period, or regular over-feeding.
Helpful?
can this be use on fish, that are for human consumption ?
- Yes, it is just for adding CO2 to water supply for plants in freshwater. CO2 is already in there, just not enough for proper growth of plants in freshwater and corals in salt water.

I have recently used medication in my 50 gal freshwater fish tank with one 22 year old comet goldfish in it . the meds cured my fish but must have killed my beneficial Bacteria as now my established tank has been going through another nitrogen cycle. It's been four weeks now the ammonia us back to zero so is nitrite zero BUT my nitrates are now spiked about 80 and the water is cloudy. Did 2 partial water changes over the last 8 days. Will a UV sterilizer help ?? Please advise. Thanks Lina

After using metronidazole 400mg×2 tablets in 75 litre aquarium tank, my two parrot fish has thread like some seeing near gills and genital area ? How to treat them ?
I noticed bloat in my flowerhorn about two weeks ago. It was there when I fed him and went away when I didn't. So I treated him with Epsom salt soaked pellets, bloat was present then. Then I noticed white poop so I stopped feeding entirely and added metronidazole 400 to the tank. Didn't work as I only saw white poop, so I added the medication into his food and now I can see brown poop hanging from a clear poop sticking out of his butt. Earlier the poop didn't stick out of his butt. What to do?
Can use mineral water for aquarium. My tap water has lot of heavy metals. I have 10 galloon tank with 4 guppy 4 danio 1 silver dollar. 1silver dollar and 1 pleco died bcoz of 2 gold fish earlier in my tank. So i decided to use RO water. Can i use.

A fellow pet owner suggested Vetoquinol Methigel for my cat who had a history of bladder stones (a calcium stone) 8-10 years ago. Does this work effectively to balance the urinary pH?
My new fish tank is being occupied by some white cotton web like thing at the bottom.. the are found on the natural plants and food remainings in the tank.. please help .. how to get rid of it? I tried changing the water 3 times..
My new glofish shark has long, white, stringy poop hanging off its body. I may have overfed him his glofish flakes. Is he constipated or stressed from being in a new tank? I treated the water with Aqua SafeStart and EasyBalance. What can I do to get him to poop?
Took my 1 yr old male cat Bailey to vet for not seeing him pee that much. She inserted him and got some urine (said he had a little crust down there, not sure what she meant but he does sit on litter). Sample showed no crystals or blood but his ph level was 8, which she said could have been from eating 2 hours prior. I know ph should be at least a 6, how can i help get it to that? I did buy some bladder support powder from Mercola pets and i put a small ice cube in his food. Thank you.
How can I remove the brown color caused by tears Can I use boric acid
