SureStart™ conditioners pack combines 3 of Seachem's top-selling items, Prime®, Stability®, and Pristine™, into one convenient pack.
Each plays an important role in initial set-up and maintenance of any aquarium.
It’s great for any aquarist but is ideal for the beginner.
Prime® is the complete and concentrated conditioner for both fresh and saltwater. Prime® removes chlorine, chloramine and detoxifies ammonia. Prime® converts ammonia into a safe, non-toxic form that is readily removed by the tank’s biofilter. Prime® may be used during tank cycling to alleviate ammonia/nitrite toxicity. Prime® detoxifies nitrite and nitrate, allowing the biofilter to more efficiently remove them.
Stability® will rapidly and safely establish the aquarium biofilter in freshwater and marine systems, thereby preventing the #1 cause of fish death: "new tank syndrome". Stability® is formulated specifically for the aquarium and contains a synergistic blend of aerobic, anaerobic, and facultative bacteria which facilitate the breakdown of waste organics, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate.
Pristine™ uses bio-augmentation, a non-chemical and natural method, to improve water quality. It provides bacteria that break down excess food, waste and detritus in freshwater and marine systems. It will also reduce excess nutrients (e.g. ammonia, nitrates, and nitrites) that may fuel the growth of nuisance and disease-causing organisms. Pristine™ increases water clarity and promotes overall better health for the aquatic environment.
Key Benefits:
- Convenient pack ideal for the beginner or new aquarium
- Combines 3 of Seachem's top-selling items, Prime®, Stability®, and Pristine™
Directions:
Prime
- Use 1 capful (5 mL) for each 200 L (50 US gallons) of new water.
For smaller volumes, please note each cap thread is approximately 1 ml. - May be added to aquarium directly, but better if added to new water first. If adding directly to aquarium, base dose on aquarium volume. For exceptionally high chloramine concentrations, a double dose may be used safely.
- To detoxify nitrite in an emergency, up to 5 times normal dose may be used.
- If temperature is > 30 °C (86 °F) and chlorine or ammonia levels are low, use a half dose.
Stability
Shake well before use.
Turn off UV/ozone.
- Use 1 capful (5 mL) for each 40L (10 US gallons) on the first day with a new aquarium. Then use 1 capful for each 80 L (20 US gallons) daily for 7 days. Fish and other aquatic species may be introduced at any time as long as dosage is maintained for 7 days.
- For optimum biofilter performance use 1 capful for each 80 L (20 US gallons) once a month or with each water change and whenever introducing new fish or whenever medicating an aquarium.
Pristine
Shake well before use.
Turn off UV/ozone.
- Initial Use:
Use 1 capful (5 mL) for each 40L - When adding new fish or after regular maintenance activities (water changes, filter maintenance, etc.) :
Use 1 capful (5 mL) per 80 L - After medications that may disrupt the biofilter have been finished:
Antibiotics should be removed with fresh carbon and a water change before adding bacteria. Allow 2 or 3 days for the bacteria to become established before using UV sterilizers or ozone.
Use 1 capful (5 mL) per 80 L
Store in a closed container in a dry and cool area. Always follow the instructions on the product label for safe and effective use.
