Instructions
- Aquarium oxygen levels must be increased using heavy aeration or a large air stone.
- Turn off any UV sterilizers and ozonizers, remove any Chemi-pure or carbon during treatment. Continue using a protein skimmer, although skimmer may require adjustment or removal of collection cup to prevent excessive overflow. Maintain normal water flow using pumps and powerheads.
- Add one scoop of Chemiclean per 10 gallons of aquarium water.
- Successful treatment may take up to 48 hours. After the 48 hour treatment period, perform a 20% water change.
- Turn on any UV sterilizers and ozonators and replace with new Chemi-pure or carbon removed previously.
NOTE: It is common for protein skimmers to over skim for a period of time during and after treatment, this is normal. It is suggested to monitor the skimmer cup while removing any collected skimmate from the aquarium and not letting it drain back into your aquarium. If your skimmer is overflowing at a quick rate, you can try restricting the air supply feeding the skimmer and that will decrease the amount of bubbles being formed or simply physically raising the skimmer body will allow for a faster drain and a dryer skimmate to be produced. When using Chemi Clean it is crucial to monitor oxygen and pH levels in your system. It helps to point a powerhead or air stone at the surface of the aquarium to maximize gas exchange. Failure to do so can cause low oxygen levels in the aquarium.
