Purpose And
Benefits:
PondCare Ammo-Rocks
are an all-natural ammonia-removing
mineral for use in ornamental fish
ponds and water gardens. Ammo-Rocks
remove poisonous ammonia produced
from fish waste, uneaten fish food,
and decomposing algae.
Ammo-Rocks are made from zeolite, a
natural ion-exchange resin.
Ammo-Rocks exchange harmless sodium
ions for toxic ammonia in the water.
As the ammonia is attracted to the
Ammo-Rocks surface, beneficial
nitrifying bacteria grow on the
rocks, forming the biological
filter. This makes Ammo-Rocks the
perfect biological filter media.
Directions For
Use:
Ammo-Rocks can be
used as a biological filter media
with any type of pond filter. Use at
least one 10 lb bag for every 300
U.S. gallons (1,135 L) of pond water
for best results. Ammo-Rocks is a
biological filter media and will not
filter out fine particles and is not
intended to replace particulate
filtration materials, such as foam
and brushes. Place Ammo-Rocks in
your filter in the same location as
your current biological filtration
media. Leave as much of your current
media as space allows. For best
results Ammo-Rocks should be
replaced annually at the start of
the pond season.
Compatibility:
Ammo-Rocks can be
used with all pond fish including
goldfish and koi. Ammo-Rocks will
not change pH.
