Fritz Guard
A high quality, multi-purpose water conditioner for freshwater and marine systems, Fritz Guard™ neutralizes chlorine, chloramine and toxic metals. Fortified with necessary electrolytes, Fritz Guard™ contains Aloe Vera and Vitamin E. Fritz Guard™ enhances biofiltration by producing a coat over the media, aiding in the bacteria’s attachment. This is especially helpful with “slick” surfaced, plastic media such as bio-balls, Kaldness and bead media. Special buffers stabilize the sodium thiosulfate, which is naturally unstable in solution & gradually becomes acidic in other dechlorinators. Our unique solution eliminates any decomposition.
Most importantly, Fritz Guard™ adds an extra slime coat to protect your fish. The slime coat is a fish’s natural defense system. Secreted by mucous glands, the slime coat protects fish from disease, aids in osmoregulation and reduces stress caused by sudden changes in the environment. Fritz Guard™ is therefore absolutely essential to a fish's continued good health. Abrasions and wounds are caused by handling, netting, shipping, disease, scraping against tank decorations, aggression and caustic water. Fritz Guard™ aids in the healing of these wounds and provides fish with a first line of defense by creating a synthetic slime coat that performs the same necessary functions as the natural slime coat of the fish.
The Fritz Guard™ Advantage
- Fritz Guard™ neutralizes toxic chlorine and chloramine.
- Fritz Guard™ synthetically enhances the fish’s slime coat to immediately reduce stress and shock resulting from handling, environmental changes and wounds caused by aggression or disease.
- Added Aloe Vera & Vitamin E promote natural healing. Fritz Guard™ naturally helps protect fish from parasites, bacteria and fungi. Fritz Guard™ will not interfere with gills or imbalance the biological filter. Fritz Guard™ even discourages nitrogen poisoning during the cycle.
- Fritz Guard™ detoxifies many heavy metals such as copper, lead & zinc. Even very small concentrations of these metals poison fish & invertebrates by slowly accumulating in fatty tissues.
- The pH swings during water changes contribute significantly to overall stress. Added buffers in Fritz Guard’s unique formula minimize drastic changes in pH, creating a more balanced aquarium.
- Fritz Guard™ promotes the growth of the nitrifying bacteria needed to establish the bio-filter by coating the gravel and bio-media (ex: bio-balls) for easy attachment by the bacteria.
