X Company's product
There are a lot of aquarium products on the market, and while most of them will work perfectly fine together in the aquarium, some will not. We can't 100% guarantee any product that's not our own, but here's a few quick rules:
- Avoid using products that overlap in function. Either one works and so it's the one you should be using, both work and so it's a waste to use them both, or neither work and you should be looking for a third, better product.
- Research the products you use carefully. Clarity® shouldn't interact with most of the products available on the market, but pay close attention to warnings on bottles with regards to product interactions.
- When in doubt, wait a day. Clarity® will typically break down after around 24 hours, so if you are concerned that Clarity® might interact with another product, it is recommended to wait a day.
Seachem® Products
It's safe to use Clarity® alongside any of Seachem®'s products except Cupramine™. If Clarity® is added to a tank that contains Cupramine™, it converts the Cupramine™ into a more toxic form. If this happens accidentally, you'll need to remove the Cupramine™ right away using activated filter carbon or CupriSorb™.
Clarity® will not directly interact with any of the other Seachem® products, but a large overdose of reducing agents (conditioners like Prime®, ammonia detoxifiers, stress reducers, and some medications) can start to reduce the oxygen levels of the tank. It's just fine to use multiple reducing agents if you have good filtration and you're not using extra products unnecessarily, but if you need to use 3 or more reducing agents at the same time, it may be best to wait an hour or so between products to avoid a sudden drop in oxygen levels.
Here's some Seachem® products that are considered reducing agents
|
Prime® |
Betta Basics™ |
Acid Regulator™ |
StressGuard™ |
|
Safe® |
Gold Basics™ |
Alkaline Regulator™ |
ParaGuard™ |
|
AmGuard™ |
Neutral Regulator® |
Discus Buffer® |
Clarity® |
As previously mentioned, it is fine to use these products together - they will not interact with each other. Just make sure you have good filtration and if you need to use 3 or more, spread your dosing out by an hour or so.
