You should use Optimus alongside Satus when starting up or ‘cycling’ a new aquarium to control ammonia and nitrite levels, thereby preventing ‘new tank syndrome’. Optimus is buffered and will not negatively affect pH or skimmers.
How to use:
- Shake bottle thoroughly before use.
- When adding to a new aquarium, calculate aquarium volume litres (length x width x depth (in cm)/1000).
- See label for full dose rate
- Dose for the full aquarium volume and add directly to the aquarium.
- During a water change, add the appropriate dose directly to the new water before adding to the aquarium.
- Use a half dose when water temperature is +30°C and chlorine and ammonia levels are low. You can double the normal dose for water containing exceptionally high chloramine. You can use Optimus up to 5 times normal dosage to detoxify nitrite in an emergency.
- Sulphur odour is normal.
