What Ingredients Are in Aqueon AquaPacs?

While proprietary in formula, Aqueon AquaPacs typically contain:

• Ammonia-neutralizing agents (such as sodium hydroxymethanesulfonate)

• Keep away from children and other animals
• Use only as directed; excessive use may affect water chemistry
• Do not mix with other water conditioners unless specified
