Kordon NovAqua Plus is the latest of technological developments in water conditioners for aquariums and ponds. NovAqua Plus dechlorinates water, removes toxic heavy metals including copper; and adds electrolytes and a protective slime coat - vitamins and echinacea. Tap water may be safe for humans, but in almost all localities it is not safe for fishes and aquatic invertebrates. Tap water needs to be modified by using NovAqua Plus when setting up aquariums or making water changes, and when preparing salt water for marine aquariums. NovAqua Plus provides, in a single product, everything necessary to handle all of the needs when treating tap water for aquatic life. NovAqua Plus is recommended to be used with AmQuel Plus, with which it is fully compatible. 1 oz bottle treats 60 gallons.

Instruction

  • Use Instructions: Standard doses for regular (aquarium) NovAqua Plus: Use 10 drops per gallon, or 1 teaspoon (approximately 5 ml) per 10 gallons of water, or 1 tablespoon (approx. 15 ml) per 30 gallons of water, or 1 fl oz for 60 gallons. When used at the recommended standard dose, 4 ounces of regular NovAqua Plus will treat 240 gallons of water, 1 gallon of regular NovAqua Plus will treat 7,680 gallons of water, 5 gallons of regular NovAqua Plus will treat 38,400 gallons of water.Suggested Usage In Aquariums & Ponds: It is recommended that NovAqua Plus be used, rather than the original Kordon NovAqua, because NovAqua Plus carries out much more in beneficial functions that improve aquarium and pond keeping. The use of NovAqua Plus is suggested for the following conditions at the Standard dose.New aquariums and ponds and water refills: New Aquariums And Ponds: Use at recommended standard dose. Add to the water when setting up a new tank or pond, preferably before the fish are added.Water Changes: Add to new water each time a water change is made. The amount of NovAqua Plus to be used is determined by the total amount of water in the aquarium or pond. NovAqua Plus will act quickly, normally within seconds and at most in a few minutes in conditioning the water. If water is suspected of containing chloramines (a chemical combination of chlorine and ammonia added by water utilities to the tap water) or natural ammonia (such as from animal excretions), the following procedure should be used to protect your fish and invertebrates:1. Add NovAqua Plus to protect the fish from stress, provide a protective slime coat, prevent shock; and remove the chlorine.2. Add Kordon's AmQuel Plus to remove all ammonia, including the ammonia in the chloramines, as well as to detoxify the nitrites, nitrates, toxic pheromones, and other toxic nitrogen compounds.3. Add Kordon's Prevent Ich to new aquariums or when adding new fish to act as a preventative for protozoan, dinoflagellate, and fungus infections.Fish and invertebrate shipping/receiving.: NovAqua Plus can be added at the standard dose to the shipping water before fish or invertebrates are shipped and after receiving them. The use of NovAqua Plus will reduce stress, osmotic shock and in some cases chemical poisoning. The use of NovAqua Plus also reduces the probability of infection and increases the chances of recovery. It is recommended that Kordon's AmQuel Plus also be added to shipping water to reduce toxic effects of free ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, and pheromones during shipping. Kordon's Prevent Ich or Ich Attack should be added to control external single-celled infections.Fish transport from shops: The use of NovAqua Plus at the standard dose will reduce stress and osmotic shock. Use NovAqua Plus at the recommended dosage (2 drops will treat 1 gallon). Add to the water in plastic bags containing the fish, before transporting from shop to home aquaria or ponds.Transportation of aquarium and pond plants: Mix a solution of NovAqua Plus at one-fourth standard dose. Dip each plant into the solution. Wrap for shipment. NovAqua Plus acts as a humectant, holding moisture in the plants over extended periods of shipment. For a greater protective coating on the plants, such as in long-distance shipping, use Kordon's Fish Protector tm or PolyAqua.Field collecting: Fewer losses will be incurred due to stress, osmotic shock and chemical poisoning, if newly captured fish and invertebrates specimens are transferred immediately to water pre-treated at the normal dose with NovAqua Plus and Kordon's AmQuel Plus. If the fish or invertebrates are substantially abraded or wounded, the use of Kordon's Fish Protector (formerly PolyAqua) is recommended. If the fish are suspected of being infected, the use of Kordon's herbal Prevent Ich tm, Ich Attack, or Fungus Rid tm is recommended. All three are of equal value as an effective organic treatment.
