NovAqua™
KORDON'S NovAqua is a unique
and safe combination of chemical
compounds that produce highly
desirable effects in freshwater
and marine systems.
NovAqua provides a protective
colloid coating on a fish's body
when the natural slime has been
removed due to injury, disease
or rough handling. The coating
acts like an invisible bandage,
providing a barrier against serious
loss of internal fluids and electrolytes
and protects damaged areas of
the body against external toxins
and disease causing organisms.
NovAqua aids in concentrating
certain drugs and antibacterials
at the diseased or damaged site.
NovAqua detoxifies heavy metals
and is capable of eliminating
free copper ions from solution.
NovAqua contains cations and anions
that are required by freshwater
fishes. Freshwater fishes remove
these ions from water via the
gills. 
The need for these ions is increased
during times of stress. NovAqua
also neutralizes chlorine (free
and combined). Its buffering action
is designed to assist aquatic
organisms in adapting to new environments
and to prevent pH shock. |
