CrystalClear Dechlorinator DryLabel & Fact Sheet Information

Type: Water Conditioner
CrystalClear Dechlorinator, when used as directed, will safely and effectively remove both chlorine and chloramine from pond water. For best results apply CrystalClear Dechlorinator to the are of the pond with the most circulation. This will allow the product to be dispersed throughout the entire water column.

Chlorine and chloramine are substances added to most city's water supplies to make water safe for human consumption. Chlorine and chloramine are toxic to all pond fish. Left untreated these substances can thicken gill filaments and cause gill lesions to develop leaving the fish unable to breath.

Directions for Use:
New Ponds: Premix 5 teaspoons of CrystalClear De chlorinator for every 5,000 gallons of pond water. After 20 minutes pond water will be safe for fish and plants to be added.

Established Ponds (Water Changes): Premix 1 teaspoons of CrystalClear Dechlorinator for every 1,000 gallons of water added.

Fact Sheet Information

Even low levels of chlorine and chloramines can be extremely toxic to fish. Chlorine is a very powerful oxidizing agent and it is toxic to fish at concentrations of less than 0.05 mg/L. Water used for fish culture should not contain any residual chlorine to be considered safe. Chlorine and chloramines cause gill damage which eventually results in gill lesions. These lesions will eventually thicken the gill filaments leaving the fish unable to utilize oxygen and release carbon dioxide, thus resulting in fish death. CrystalClear Dechlorinator (Dry) will work to break the chlorine and chloramine bonds (chlorine + ammonia = chloramine) and reduce the chlorine and ammonia down to non-toxic levels.

CrystalClear Dechlorinator (Dry) is basically sodium thiosulfate which is widely used to break down chlorine and chloramines and is considered non-toxic to fish. Sodium thiosulfate was chosen because it seemed to be the perfect product or solution for use in water gardens and ponds because of its ability to break the chlorine bond and chemically remove the chlorine after a short working time. Aeration of the water (which most water gardens have present) will allow the ammonia, which was released from the chlorine bond, to escape as a gas over a period of one to two hours. Any remaining ammonia will be filtered out through flow through filters which most often contain activated carbon or some type of filter material.

This product is extremely potent and directions should be followed closely. It is best used for regular water changes and when filling a new pond. We recommend not putting in any fish or plant life until a day after treatment to be safe. This should give any residual ammonia enough time to escape or filter out.

CrystalClear Dechlorinator (Dry) is phosphate and nitrate free, safe for fish and plants. Store at room temperature. Shelf life: 3 years.

Chlorine: A disinfectant added to municipal water supplies to kill harmful bacteria, but toxic to fish and beneficial bacteria. Over time, chlorine will thicken the gills of a fish.

Chloramine: A mixture of compounds that occur when both ammonia and chlorine are used to treat municipal water supplies. Chloramines are more stable than chlorine and the reaction time to remove chloramines is somewhat longer than for chlorine.
