AmQuel+ Concentrated Water Detoxifier

CONTRAINDICATIONS

AmQuel Plus should not be added to water containing active, therapeutic dosages of chemical dyes such as methylene blue, acriflavine, malachite green, potassium permanganate, iodine, and acriflavine, since AmQuel Plus will interfere with their proper performance. Combining AmQuel Plus with these dyes will not result in toxic chemical by-products. AmQuel Plus can be useful in those instances when it is desirable to terminate a treatment with a chemical dye Use of AmQuel Plus with organic herbal treatments: responding to inquiries about the use of AmQuel Plus with Kordon naphthoquinone treatments Ich-Attack, Rid-Fungus, and Prevent-Ich, it is safe to use all organic herbal treatments with AmQuel Plus without interference with each other. Also see above under Compatibilities. Compatibility of AmQuel Plus with water test kits: since a significant number of water test kits for aquarium and pond keeping are inaccurate, this is an important issue for those trying to make water tests. AmQuel Plus is compatible to use with those water quality test kits on the market that are fully effective (see note below), except for the ammonia test kits that use Nessler reagents that read in shades of amber or yellow, and the oxygen test kits that use Winkler reagents. Residual AmQuel Plus and its reaction products are incompatible with the Nessler and Winkler type reagents, resulting in false, high ammonia and low oxygen concentration readings. Ammonia test kits using Salicylate-type reagents (reading on a colorimetric scale from yellow to green to blue green) are appropriate for accurate test results.

TOXICITY

AmQuel Plus is non-toxic when used as directed. Many hundreds of kinds of freshwater and marine fishes, aquatic invertebrates and plants have been exposed to multiple full doses of AmQuel Plus during extended test periods and general use with no toxic effects. AmQuel Plus does not reach toxic levels even in cases of accidental or purposeful overdosing. AmQuel Plus is non-toxic to humans and no special precautions are necessary in handling this product.
