Seachem Axolotl Conditioner 250mL — Dechlorinator and Heavy Metal Neutraliser Renders Municipal Water Instantly For Axolotls & Amphibians Of Aquariums

Seachem Axolotl Conditioner 250mL (SKU: 725095-8136) is a specialised water conditioner designed specifically to render municipal tap water instantly safe for axolotls and aquatic amphibians. Tap water contains disinfectants like chlorine and chloramines, alongside toxic trace heavy metals such as copper, lead, and zinc. Because axolotls absorb chemicals directly through their highly permeable skin and delicate external gill filaments, exposure to untreated tap water can result in severe tissue damage, respiratory distress, or toxicity. The 250mL bottle of conditioner is a concentrated water conditioner that removes chlorine, chloramine, heavy metals, and detoxifies ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate, ensuring a safe environment for axolotls.

Axolotl Conditioner neutralises chlorine, chloramines, and heavy metals rapidly without leaving dangerous chemical residues. Formulated strictly without aloe vera, synthetic polymers, or heavy botanical oils—which can coat amphibian skin and impair cutaneous respiration—this conditioner ensures pure, safe water. It also supports natural slime coat integrity without clogging delicate branchial structures, providing essential protection during every water change. It is non-acidic, does not impact pH, and should be used during water changes or when adding new water.
