Made in the USA. Aquatic Expert's TankFirst has an all natural formula that makes tap water INSTANTLY SAFE!

ONE OF A KIND! Unlike similar water conditioners, TankFirst is formulated WITHOUT stinky, rotten-egg sulfur smells.

POWERFUL AND GENTLE! Our Premium Water Conditioner is for use with all freshwater and saltwater species.

TankFirst Directions


TankFirst helps in unusual situations such as overcrowding or overfeeding by binding with ammonia and nitrite making them non-toxic to aquatic life for up to 24 hours, until the aquarium's biological filter catches up and/or a partial water change is completed.


*Measurement using bottle cap

Add 1 Capful (5mL) for each 10 gallons of new water.


*Instructions to treat high levels of Ammonia


Be sure to reduce feeding until ammonia and nitrite is no longer present and any dead livestock are removed. If high levels of ammonia and nitrite are not the result of the initial nitrogen cycle, it is best to reduce the levels through a partial water change and use TankFirst as directed.


1. Test ammonia with an ammonia salicylate reagent test kit rather than Nessler's reagent to get an accurate reading of amount of ammonia present in water.

2. Add 5 ml (1 capful) per 10 gallons of water to treat entire system for each 1 ppm of ammonia or nitrite measured on test kit. Keep pumps and filters running.

3. Wait 10 minutes; re-test ammonia concentration in aquarium water and repeat treatment if needed.

4. TankFirst can be safely re-dosed every 24 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the best way to use your premium water conditioner to detoxify ammonia in my aquarium?

    Our complete conditioner does a great job of detoxifying ammonia in unusual situations such as overcrowding or overfeeding. In such cases, our premium water conditioner will help control ammonia until the aquarium's biological filter catches back up.


    1. Test ammonia levels with an ammonia salicylate reagent test kit rather than Nessler's reagent to get an accurate reading of ammonia in your water.

    2. Add 5 ml (1 capful) per 10 gallons of water to treat entire system for each 1 ppm of ammonia measured on test kit.


    Wait 10 minutes; re-test ammonia concentration in aquarium water and repeat treatment if needed.

  • I have a 30-gallon aquarium. When doing a water change do I treat the entire 30 gallons or just the new water I am adding?

    Treat only the new water you are adding. Simply add 1 capful or 1 teaspoon for each 10 gallons of water being treated.

  • Can fish really smell?

    Fish have olfactory receptors in 2 pits on their snout which are used to find food, spawning grounds, and much more.

  • Does Aquatic Experts Premium water conditioner have ingredients to provide a slime coat?

    We do not add any chemicals to coat the fish or cause fish to more rapidly produce their slime coat. Healthy fish even after being caught with a fish net will naturally produce their protective layer of slime. Therefore, we prefer not to add any chemicals which could pollute the fish tank.

  • Do you have dosage charts for these?

    Absolutely! You can find our dosage charts here.
