Fritz Slime Out 10ct

Product details

Fritz Slime Out 10ct (03990) is a water treatment used to help remove unattractive cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) staining from aquarium systems. It’s designed for practical outbreak control, targeting cyanobacteria strains including blue-green, black, red, and bubble types, while fitting into an existing saltwater routine for fish, corals, plants, and invertebrates. In use, it’s paired by many hobbyists with FritzZyme 360 or 460 as part of a broader approach to reduce nutrients and help prevent future outbreaks.
