Frequently asked questions
How does Clarence work?
Clarence works in two ways: He contains a high-capacity adsorbent material that will remove any phosphate or ammonia he comes in contact with. He also carries with him a component that converts harmful ammonia to non-toxic ammonium.
[Ammonia exists in water as either the ammonium ion (NH4+) or the non-ionized ammonia (NH 3). Non-ionized ammonia is toxic to fish, while the ammonium ion is non-toxic. To learn more about ammonia vs. ammonium and how it affects your aquarium, please visit this site.]
