Product Overview

Professional-grade 50% Hydrogen Peroxide solution in a convenient 1-litre bottle. This concentrated oxidizing agent is an essential tool for maintaining clean, healthy growing environments in hydroponics, aquaponics, aquaculture, and fish pond systems. Our pharmaceutical-grade formula ensures maximum effectiveness while being safe for plants and aquatic life when used correctly.

Key Benefits

Root Health & Oxygenation

• Increases dissolved oxygen levels in nutrient solutions and water systems
• Prevents and treats root rot by eliminating harmful anaerobic bacteria
• Promotes vigorous white root development

Disease Prevention

• Controls algae growth in reservoirs, tanks, and pond systems
• Eliminates harmful pathogens, bacteria, and fungi
• Prevents biofilm formation in irrigation lines and equipment

Water Quality Enhancement

• Breaks down organic waste and debris
• Reduces ammonia and nitrite levels in aquaculture systems
• Improves water clarity and reduces odours

System Maintenance

• Cleans and sterilizes equipment without harmful residues
• Prevents clogging in drip lines and spray nozzles
• Extends equipment lifespan by preventing bacterial buildup

Applications & Dosage Guidelines

Hydroponics

Routine Water Treatment:

• Mix 1-2ml of 50% H2O2 per 4 litres of nutrient solution
• Add weekly during reservoir changes
• Monitor dissolved oxygen levels with DO meter

Root Rot Treatment:

• Emergency dose: 3-4ml per 4 litres of solution
• Apply directly to affected root zone if possible
• Replace nutrient solution after 24-48 hours

System Cleaning:

• Mix 10ml per litre for equipment sterilization
• Circulate for 30 minutes, then flush thoroughly
• Use between growing cycles

Aquaponics

Routine Maintenance:

• Add 1ml of 50% H2O2 per 10 litres of system water
• Apply bi-weekly or when dissolved oxygen drops
• Monitor fish behaviour closely after application

Algae Control:

• Spot treatment: 2-3ml per 10 litres in problem areas
• Never exceed 5ml per 10 litres total system volume
• Apply during evening hours to minimize plant stress

Fish Ponds & Aquaculture

Oxygen Emergency:

• Quick dose: 2-4ml per 10 litres for low oxygen situations
• Apply near aeration points for rapid distribution
• Monitor fish for stress signs

Disease Prevention:

• Preventive dose: 1ml per 15 litres weekly
• Increase to 1ml per 10 litres during high-risk periods
• Always apply gradually over 10-15 minutes

Pond Cleaning:

• Maintenance dose: 2ml per 10 litres monthly
• Target areas with organic buildup
• Best applied during cooler parts of the day

Safety Precautions & Handling

IMPORTANT: 50% Hydrogen Peroxide is a strong oxidizing agent requiring careful handling.

Personal Protection:

• Always wear chemical-resistant gloves and safety glasses
• Use in well-ventilated areas only
• Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing
• Have eyewash station or clean water readily available

Mixing Guidelines:

• Always add H2O2 to water, never water to H2O2
• Use plastic or stainless steel containers only
• Mix slowly to prevent rapid temperature rise
• Never mix with other chemicals

Storage Requirements:

• Store in original container in cool, dark location (below 25°C)
• Keep away from heat sources and direct sunlight
• Ensure cap is tightly sealed to prevent decomposition
• Keep away from organic materials and metals

Application Best Practices

Timing:

• Apply during evening hours to minimize UV breakdown
• Allow 4-6 hours between applications if multiple doses needed
• Monitor systems for 24 hours after application

Water Parameters:

• Test pH before application (optimal range: 6.5-7.5)
• Check dissolved oxygen levels with DO meter if available
• Monitor temperature (cooler water holds more dissolved oxygen)

Signs of Overdosing:

• Fish gasping at surface or showing distress
• Plant leaf burn or yellowing
• Excessive foaming in water
• If overdose suspected, increase aeration and perform partial water change

Compatibility & Interactions

Safe to Use With:

• Most hydroponic nutrients (apply separately)
• Beneficial bacteria supplements (apply 24 hours apart)
• pH adjusters and buffers
• Standard aquaculture treatments (consult timing)

Do Not Mix With:

• Chlorine or chloramine treatments
• Organic fertilizers or supplements
• Iron-based products
• Any other oxidizing agents

Storage & Shelf Life

• Unopened shelf life: 12 months when stored properly
• Once opened: Use within 6 months for maximum potency
• Store between 2-25°C away from light
• Natural decomposition rate: ~1% per month in ideal conditions
• Test concentration periodically with test strips if long-term storage

Professional Results

When used correctly, 50% Hydrogen Peroxide delivers:

• 30-50% increase in dissolved oxygen levels
• Significant reduction in root diseases and algae growth
• Improved plant vigour and faster growth rates
• Cleaner, healthier aquatic environments
• Extended equipment life through regular maintenance

WARNING: This is a concentrated industrial chemical. Read all safety data sheets before use. Not for human consumption. Keep out of reach of children and pets. In case of emergency, contact poison control immediately.
