As nitrate, one of the major nutrients of algae, is removed, algae growth is also reduced
NitrateMinus has a stabilising effect on KH and pH - if used with existing high levels of nitrate or other products that stabilise carbonate hardness, KH levels may increase

Reliably reduces nitrates, decreases algae nutrients, improves water quality, and a completely biological process.

The new liquid formula is highly efficient and easy to use

For all freshwater and saltwater aquariums

Use weekly to control nitrates

Tetra EasyBalance

Happily, the fishkeeper's life is about to change forever

It's all thanks to EasyBalance - a revolutionary new liquid water additive, which cleverly eliminates the need for frequent water changes.

Until now, there was really only one way you could keep your aquarium water properly balanced. That was by removing some of the old water every few weeks and replacing it with fresh - a messy and time-consuming chore.

Now EasyBalance changes everything - researched and developed over many years, long term tests have proved conclusively that TetraAqua EasyBalance actually eliminates the need for frequent water changes.

In effect, when EasyBalance is added to the aquarium, it replicates the 'refreshing' action of traditional water changes - so now fishkeeping will be much easier and cleaner.

Now, using a little EasyBalance every week will keep your aquarium water in chemical and biological balance for six months.

And that in turn means you will only have to do one water change every six months. Always assuming you've got the bottle.

Tetra Aquasafe

New 5 Litre size available : treats up to 10,000 litres of tap water

Makes tap water safe for fish

Neutralises harmful chlorine, chloramine and heavy metals

Supports protective mucous layers

Creates clear water

For healthy fish in all Freshwater and Marine Aquariums

Many fishkeepers use tapwater when filling or topping up their aquarium or when cleaning equipment such as filters and pumps. Unfortunately in nearly all areas of the country, tapwater contains one ingredient which is added by the water treatment companies to make it safe for us to drink by killing bacteria and other micro-organisms. That ingredient is CHLORINE (Cl2). Unfortunately, although it is relatively harmless to ourselves in the quantities found in tapwater, it is EXTREMELY toxic to fish, reptiles, amphibians, invertebrates and most other forms of aquatic life. This includes precious filter bacteria which play an important part in breaking down fish wastes, purifying the water in which they live.

Due to the toxicity of chlorine in tapwater, it is essential that this is either removed or neutralised before it comes into contact with the fish and other aquarium inhabitants.

The easiest way of doing this is to add Tetra Aquasafe to the tap water either before or as it enters the aquarium.

Unlike many other water dechlorinators Tetra AquaSafe does not contain a chemical known as Sodium Thiosulphate, which acts by chemically reacting with chlorine, effectively neutralising it. Unfortunately those dechlorinators which contain sodium thiosulphate do produce sulphate ions as a by product of the reaction with chlorine. As the sulphate ions are broken down in the water so they increase the loading on important biological purifying processes thus increasing the risk of water pollution problems.

Tetra AquaSafe does not contain Sodium Thiosulphate but much more complex organic colloidal ingredients which act in several ways;
They neutralise chlorine, not by reacting with it in the usual sense of the word, but by combining with it, neutralising and removing it all in one go. They also remove dangerous toxic heavy metals from the water. They also coat the delicate membranes of the fish in a protective permeable layer actually helping to increase the rate at which tissue repair occurs, stimulating the healing processes of the fish.

Tetra AquaSafe really is the complete water conditioner for the aquarium, not only removing harmful chemicals from the water in a safe effective way, but also helping to protect your fish from damage whilst increasing the effectiveness of their own immune systems.

Tetra Goldfish Aquasafe

Makes tap water safe for goldfish

Creates ideal water for goldfish by removing harmful compounds from tap water and adding beneficial substances

Add AquaSafe to new tap water at a rate of 5ml per 10litres (2gallons), to make it safe prior to adding it to the aquarium.

AquaSafe can also be added directly to the aquarium at the same dosage to act as a general stress-reliever. This is especially helpful for new fish, following maintenance, or when treating the fish for a disease.

When preparing water for water changes, it is best to treat it with AquaSafe in a bucket beforehand, and use boiled tap water to warm it to the same temperature as the aquarium.

Neutralises harmful chlorine, chloramine and heavy metals
Supports protective mucous layers
Creates clear water

For healthy fish in all coldwater bowls and aquariums

TetraPlant PlantaMin

TetraPlant PlantaMin - Iron rich fertiliser for magnificent and rich green plants.

Where good plant growth is desired, it is necessary to add additional fertiliser to the aquarium. PlantaMin is absorbed rapidly by leaves and roots, providing essential trace elements for strong and healthy growth. In addition, it does not encourage the growth of algae.

PlantaMin contains essential nutrients and trace elements, such as iron and manganese, together with macronutrients such as potassium. These nutrients are typically lacking in ordinary aquarium water, and therefore need to be added for healthy plant growth. Richly coloured leaves are encouraged by the promotion of chlorophyll formation.

PlantaMin does not encourage algae like some poorer quality fertilisers, as it does not contain phosphate or nitrate in a free form.

Please Note : This product was previously marketed by Tetra as Florapride

The product make up and price is still the same

Easy Application:

Add 5ml per 10 litres of aquarium water for newly set-up aquariums, or at each partial water change
or
5ml per 20 litres for re-fertilisation every 4 weeks
