Make Tap Water Safe For Pond Life & Remove Toxic Heavy Metals
Protect Your Fish And Ensure Your Pond Has Safe Chlorine Levels: The health and beauty of all pond life depends on the quality of water added to the pond. Many tap water supplies used to fill backyard goldfish ponds and larger koi ponds contain chlorine. Chlorine is used extensively to make water safe for human consumption but is extremely poisonous to your pond inhabitants. Chlorine destroys fish gill tissue preventing the uptake of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide resulting in fish death. Even low levels of chlorine irritate delicate skin tissue on frogs, snails, and salamanders.
Certain metals such as copper and zinc are essential to pond life metabolism. But in elevated and unnatural levels they become toxic and are classified as toxic "heavy metals". Examples include lead, tin, copper, zinc, and manganese. Heavy metals sometimes enter tap water via lead and copper pipes as well as the solder used to join the pipes. Airborne pollutants and heavy rains carry airborne metals in to the pond where they may accumulate to toxic levels. Heavy metal poisoning occurs slowly over a period of time. These metals slowly build up in the organs of pond fish, snails, salamanders and other aquatic life, causing a variety of physiological problems eventually resulting in disease break out and fatalities. High levels of one or more of these heavy metals causes rapid death of fish and amphibians without obvious symptoms of disease or tissue damage.
