Collection: Water Treatments

Maintaining pristine water quality and healthy livestock is the cornerstone of successful aquarium keeping. Our Water Treatments collection features trusted, professional-grade solutions from Fritz and Mardel—brands relied upon by hobbyists and commercial breeders alike.

Whether you're setting up a new tank, treating a specific health issue, or maintaining optimal conditions for sensitive shrimp and fish, these products deliver safe, effective results when used as directed.

Water Conditioners

Start every water change right with Fritz Complete Water Conditioner, a comprehensive solution that removes chlorine, chloramines, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate from tap water. Safe for both freshwater and saltwater systems, it's an essential tool for protecting delicate gills and biofilter bacteria during routine maintenance.

Parasite Treatments

Combat common parasitic infections with targeted medications:

• Fritz Expel-P – Levamisole-based treatment specifically formulated for shrimp, effective against internal parasites, worms, and wasting disease
• Fritz ParaCleanse – Broad-spectrum solution for fish, targeting internal tapeworms, gill flukes, skin flukes, and wasting disease with a proven 5-day treatment protocol
• Fritz FIXICK – Fast-acting remedy for ick (white spot disease) and other external protozoan parasites in both fresh and saltwater aquariums
• Fritz A+ Aquarium Salt – Pharmaceutical-grade salt for treating external parasites like vorticella and scutariella japonica in shrimp; ideal for dips or hospital tank use

Bacterial Infection Control

Mardel Maracyn contains Erythromycin to treat gram-positive bacterial infections in fish, including fin rot, body slime, and mouth fungus. Safe for use in tanks with invertebrates, making it a reliable choice for planted and shrimp-focused setups.

Why Quality Treatments Matter

Inferior or outdated medications can stress livestock, crash beneficial bacteria colonies, or simply fail to resolve the issue. Every product in this collection has been selected for:

• Proven efficacy – Formulations backed by decades of aquaculture research
• Safety – Compatible with sensitive species when dosed correctly
• Clarity – Clear instructions and dosing guidelines for confident use
• Shelf stability – Products that remain effective when stored properly

Always quarantine new arrivals, observe your livestock daily, and treat early when symptoms appear. Pair these treatments with regular water testing, proper filtration, and stable parameters for the best long-term health outcomes.

Note: Follow all product instructions carefully. Remove activated carbon during treatment and monitor livestock closely. Consult species-specific care guides if you're unsure about compatibility.
