CrystalClear ParaSalt 10 lb

CrystalClear ParaSalt increases koi and goldfish electrolytic intake. Electrolytes are critical in building and maintaining a protective slime coat. Electrolytes such as potassium are essential in wound repair and during heavy stress (i.e., during water changes or clean-outs). ParaSalt is excellent for mucous production when healing from a wound.

ParaSalt will also help ward off and remove the most common protozoan parasites found in koi and goldfish, such as Dactylogyrus, Byrodcytulus, Epistylis, Trichodina, and Chilodonella. Use ParaSalt in a salt bath for heavy infestations or as a routine treatment to keep parasites from entering the pond environment.

Routine Application Rate

Apply ParaSalt once a month at the prescribed rates and after a water change, clean-out, or during a seasonal change. Most pond fish stress during these times and need the electrolytes to repair their slime coating.

Persistent Problem Application Rate

Add 16 ounces of ParaSalt for every 5 gallons of water in an isolated bath or quarantine tank for salt baths. Place infected fish in an aerated (use an air stone) bath for 5-10 minutes or until the fish begins to turn over. Remove fish immediately if fish shows any signs of stress. After the bath, immediately remove the fish to a quarantine tank for 30 minutes and monitor the fish closely.

After 30 minutes, place the fish back into the pond. Slowly introduce the fish back into the pond water. Place the fish in a bag of bath water and let the bag float on the pond for 15 minutes. Release the fish into the pond when the water temperature in the bag and pond is the same to avoid shock.

For Best Results

Do not over-apply ParaSalt, and follow directions thoroughly for maximum effect. If you need clarification on the bath application, please consult your local CrystalClear pond professional.
