  • Removes chlorine, chloramine
  • Detoxifies ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate
  • 5x more concentrated than competing products

Almost all pet aquatics companies manufacture a product that removes chlorine. None of these, however, can compare in terms of quality, concentration, or effectiveness to Seachem’s flagship product: Prime®. Prime® is the complete and concentrated conditioner for both fresh and saltwater. Prime® removes chlorine, chloramine and detoxifies ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate. It is non-acidic and will not impact pH. A further bonus for the reef enthusiast – Prime® will not over-activate skimmers.

Prime ® is up to 5 times more concentrated than competing products and is the second most concentrated dechlorinator on the market only after our own aquavitro ® alpha™.

Prime® may be used during tank cycling to alleviate ammonia/nitrite toxicity. It contains a binder which renders ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate non-toxic, allowing the biofilter to more efficiently remove them. It will also detoxify any heavy metals found in the tap water at typical concentration levels. Use at start-up and whenever adding or replacing water. When transporting or quarantining fish, use Seachem StressGuard™. When adding new fish, use Stability®. Both are ideal for use with Prime®.

Sizes: 50 mL, 100 mL, 250 mL, 500 mL, 1 L, 2 L, 4 L

Use 1 capful (5 mL) for each 200 L (50 US gallons) of new water. For smaller volumes, please note that each cap thread is approximately 1 mL. May be added to aquarium directly, but better if added to new water first. If adding directly to aquarium, base dose on aquarium volume. Sulfur odor is normal. For exceptionally high chloramine concentrations, a double dose may be used safely. To detoxify nitrite in an emergency, up to 5 times normal dose may be used. If temperature is > 30 °C (86 °F) and chlorine or ammonia levels are low, use a half dose.
