Fluval - Water Care

Not all water is the same! There are countless different types of water. Tap water in particular varies drastically from region to region, as it is drawn and blended from different sources such as reservoirs or groundwater. In some regions of the world, for example, tap water is treated with chlorine before it comes out of the faucet; in other regions, tap water is of higher quality than bottled table water. As a rule, however, water treated for human use is processed so that its germ load is extremely low. Of course, this also removes the bacteria that can help in an aquarium. Fluval's biological water conditioners return exactly this selected share of helpful bacteria to the aquarium water. These invisible helpers are essential for breaking down fish waste and leftover food and for preventing algae films. The right water conditioners ensure balance right from the cycling phase and also make sure that tap water can be used safely in the aquarium. The Fluval water conditioner, for example, binds harmful heavy metals in the water and can even neutralize chlorine and chloramine. The biological water additive has the potential to drastically shorten the cycling phase of the aquarium. In this category, you can buy a whole range of helpers for better water quality.
