  • Detoxifies Ammonia for up to 48 hours
  • Ideal for emergency situations
  • More effective than any other ammonia-binding product
  • Most concentrated product on the market

AmGuard safely, rapidly and efficiently removes toxic free ammonia. It is safe to use during tank cycling and is ideal for treating emergency situations. AmGuard is the strongest liquid ammonia binder on the market. It works within minutes to detoxify free ammonia, and it doesn’t degrade for nearly 72 hours. That’s at least twice as long as our competitors’ products. Unlike competing products, AmGuard converts it into a safe, non-toxic form that is readily removed by the tank’s biofilter. It does not alter pH. Ammonia can exist in two forms: free and ionized. It is only the free form that is toxic. Traditional ammonia test kits convert all ammonia to free ammonia by raising pH to 12–14; at this pH AmGuard cannot function and thus a false positive reading will result.

Directions

Use 1 capful (5 mL) for every 200 L (50 US gallons) daily or as needed to reduce ammonia.

If water temperature is above 30 °C (86 °F) do not use.

Penelope U. ★★★★★

Left a couple of my fish in a tank with a spike while I was at work for two days, but a single dose of this bought me enough time to fix the cycle. The 48-hour protection window is exactly what I needed for emergencies like this.

William R. ★★★★★

For a product that’s supposed to be the most concentrated ammonia binder on the market, I was impressed that just a small dose handled a sudden spike in my tank for the full 48 hours. It’s definitely the best quick fix I’ve found for emergency situations.

Timothy J. ★★★★★

My tank suffered an ammonia spike after adding new fish, and this cleared it up within hours. Love that it lasts a full 48 hours, giving me peace of mind. Very impressed with how fast it worked compared to other treatments I've tried.
