SCAPE Planted Aquarium - Dechlorination 500ml

SCAPE Planted Aquarium - Dechlorination 500ml is a tap water conditioner that removes chlorine and chloramines from tap water before it reaches your fish, shrimp and plants. Part of the SCAPE Planted Aquarium range, it is a practical choice for aquascapers and freshwater hobbyists who use municipal tap water for setting up tanks and doing water changes.

Key Benefits

• Removes both chlorine and chloramines from tap water.
• Concentrated formula. One squirt (approximately 1 ml) treats 50 L of tap water.
• 500 ml treats up to 25,000 litres (approx. 6,600 gal) of tap water, so a single purchase covers many water changes.
• Can be used to treat water before it goes into the tank, or dosed into the aquarium if untreated tap water has already been added.
• Part of the SCAPE Planted Aquarium line, so it fits a planted-tank care routine.

How to Use

• Treating new water before adding it: Dose the tap water at 1 squirt per 50 L before pouring it into the aquarium.
• If tap water went straight into the tank: Dose for the entire aquarium volume, not just the water you added. Use 1 squirt per 50 L of total tank volume.

Dosage

• 1 squirt (approximately 1ml) per 50L of tap water.
• When untreated tap water is added directly to the aquarium, use 1 squirt per 50L of the entire aquarium volume.
• 500ml treats up to 25000L of tap water.

Suitable For

• Planted aquariums and aquascapes filled or topped up with tap water.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do I add for my aquarium's water change?
Dose for the volume of new tap water you are adding, at 1 squirt (approx. 1ml) per 50L. For a 100L water change, that is 2 squirts.

I filled my tank with tap water before treating it. What now?
Add 1 squirt per 50L of the entire aquarium volume, not just the amount of water you added. A 200L tank would need 4 squirts.

Does it deal with chloramines as well as chlorine?
Yes. SCAPE Dechlorination removes both chlorine and chloramines from tap water. That matters because chloramine does not simply gas off when water is left to stand.

How far does 500ml go?
500ml treats up to 25,000L of tap water. At the 50L-per-squirt rate, that works out to roughly 500 doses.

Is it intended for planted tanks?
It belongs to the SCAPE Planted Aquarium range and is designed for conditioning tap water used in planted aquarium set-ups and maintenance.
