Product details
Seachem AmGuard 250mL (776) is an ammonia detoxifying liquid designed to rapidly neutralize toxic free ammonia in aquarium water. It’s commonly used during tank cycling and for emergency situations when free ammonia readings indicate urgent stress risk to fish. AmGuard converts free ammonia into a form that is considered non-toxic and is then removed by the tank’s biofilter, helping protect livestock while conditions stabilize.
Features:
- Rapid action: works within minutes to detoxify toxic free ammonia
- Designed for emergency use and can be used safely during aquarium cycling
- Helps provide extended protection by detoxifying free ammonia for up to about 72 hours
- Does not alter pH while performing its ammonia detoxifying function
- Converts toxic free ammonia into a safe, non-toxic form that is removed by the biofilter
- Also helps address chlorine and chloramines in treated water (as described by the product information)
- Works based on ammonia chemistry: only the free ammonia form is addressed
- Can affect certain test interpretations because some test kits force ammonia into a free form at very high pH levels
