Microbe-Lift Xtreme

MICROBE-LIFT/XTreme is a full-function water conditioner in a single product. It has been formulated to condition new water (instantly “ages”). It should be used when setting up a new pond or aquarium, making water changes, when adding new fishes, invertebrates, amphibians or plants.

Instantly “Ages” Water

Detoxifies Nitrite
Removes Ammonia
Destroys and removes chloramines
Removes Chlorine
Detoxifies heavy metals
Adds a multi-part skin-slime replacer
Adds essential electrolytes
Boosts alkalinity

MICROBE-LIFT/XTreme has been formulated with buffers to help stabilize the treated water's pH and alkalinity (acid-neutralizing capacity). It removes both ammonia and chlorine by chemically reacting with them.

Essential electrolytes not only assist in buffering, but also assist in preventing osmotic shock often caused by new water. MICROBE-LIFT/XTreme detoxifies heavy metals (e.g. copper and lead) by both chelation and precipitation.

Recommendations
Perform regular water changes to keep the alkalinity (acid-neutralizing capacity) and pH stable. Use MICROBE-LIFT/XTreme, at the standard dosage rate, to eliminate and control each measured 1 mg/L, or fraction thereof, of total ammonia (= 0.85 mg/L total ammonia-nitrogen). Use a salicylate (indolphenol) type total ammonia test kit. For dissolved oxygen testing use either a DO meter or an indigo carmine test.

Contraindications
Do not use with permanganate-based or chlorite-based treatments.
Nessler's total ammonia tests will give false, high (or off scale) readings.
Winkler dissolved oxygen tests will give false, low (or zero) readings.

Non-toxic to humans, pets and aquatic life.

This product is intended for use with all ornamental aquarium fish. Not for use with fishes or aquatic invertebrates intended for human consumption. This is not a medication or economic poison and is not intended for use as such.

To fully condition water for new aquariums or ponds, before, after or during water additions, or before adding new fishes, amphibians, invertebrates or plants:
Add 1 teaspoonful (5 mL) of MICROBE-LIFT/XTreme per 10 gallons (38 L) of water.
For larger applications use the following measurements: 1 fl. oz. (30 mL.) per 60 gal. (227 L).
