Seachem Prime is a water conditioner for keepers who prepare tap water for freshwater and marine tanks, including during new tank setup and cycling. It addresses the chlorine, chloramine and ammonia that are typically present in municipal supply before the water reaches the aquarium.
Why it matters
- Chloramine and ammonia handling: Prime converts chlorine, chloramine and ammonia into a non-toxic form, which the biological filter then removes quickly.
- Heavy metals: The product neutralises heavy metals found in tap water.
- Slime coat support: Prime supports the formation and regeneration of the protective mucus layer on fish.
- No pH impact: The product is not acidic and does not change water pH, and it does not overload a protein skimmer.
