Jump Start Concentrated Nitrifying Bacteria

New Product for 2008

Jump Start is a professionnal formula of 50% Nitrosomonas and 50% Nitrobacter nitrifying bacteria. Jump Start is excellent for rapid "cycling" in a new bio-filter or re-start of existing bio-filters in Spring or after use of harsh medications. Jump Start does NOT need to be refrigerated during shipping within the U.S. but MUST be kept refrigerated during storage.

Jump Start is manufactured by the makers of KoiZyme and was beta tested for 15 months prior to its 2008 introduction. It was tested by filter manufacters, pond maintenence companies, and many of our dealers here in the U.S.

Available in quarts (treats 1,200 gallons) and gallons (treats 4,800 gallons).

Suggested Retail Price: Quart $34.95, Gallon $104.95


Ammonium Chloride

When starting a new pond with a new filter using Fritz-Zyme Turbo Start some hobbyist prefer using ammonium chloride as an ammonia source for the nitrifying bacteria rather than load the pond with koi. Using ammonium chloride rather than koi as an ammonia source is a much safer way to seed the biofilter because the ammonia levels are not going to endanger the koi. Once the filter has cycled and the ammonia and nitrite levels are safe then you can introduce your koi. This ammonium chloride is lab grade (99.7% pure).

Available in a 500 gram jar.

Suggested Retail Price: $32.00



Parasites, Lice & Anchor Worms

New for 2008!

PraziPond Plus (High Performance Praziquantel)
( pray-zih-KWON-tel )

Praziquantel ("Prazi") is the preeminent treatment for flukes. 'Prazi' is by far the most gentle, yet effective treatment for flukes available to our hobby.

Koi Care Kennel, Inc. was the first company to introduce affordable Prazi to the hobby in 2002. Now, Koi Care Kennel, Inc. is the first company to introduce "High Performance" Prazi. PraziPond Plus is USP grade (99.5% pure) prazi blended with cyanocobalamin and a proprietary polymer mixture. No other prazi available today has this advanced formula. PraziPond Plus is 40% more effective than prazi alone. PraziPond Plus is manufactured for Koi Care Kennel, Inc. by AquaScience Research Group, Inc., the leading company in the koi hobby for polymer advanced research. AquaScience's polymers are responsible for the success of "ProForm-C" and "Ultimate Water Conditioner". Now AquaScience's advanced polymer technology is available in PraziPond Plus.

As a preventative, we recommend treating once a year in early Spring. PraziPond Plus will work in ANY water temperture, and can be used at the same time with ProForm-C.

A Non-Diversion Certificate is required to purchase. Please print a copy and return to Koi Care Kennel, Inc.

ProForm-C Broad Spectrum Disease Treatment

ProForm-C is the preeminent broad spectrum malachite green & formalin treatment. It is formulated differently than any other malachite green & formalin mix. Malachite green and formalin are two drugs that are more effective in combination than if used individually. This is the definition of synergism. These two drugs are also less toxic in combination than if used individually, What makes ProForm-C the preeminent product in this field is the fact it is formulated with malachite green chloride, while all other MG&F products use the oxalate salt form which is more toxic than the chloride form. As with any malachite green & formalin  treatment  do NOT use with salt levels above  0.05%.

The benefits of ProForm-C

  • The safest and most effective treatment for the control of diseases caused by Ichthyophthirius (ich), Costia, Trichodina, Chilodonella, Oodinium and fungal infections.
  • The ONLY MG&F treatment that can be used in water temperatures as low as 50 degrees (F), thus allowing you to treat in early Spring and late Fall. All other MG&F treatments can NOT be used below 62 degrees (F).
  • Treatment is DAILY. Most other MG&F treatments are dosed once every three days. Dosing daily allows you to complete the treatment in 3 days instead of 9 days.
  • You do NOT need to bypass your bio-filters which allows a more comprehensive treatment of the entire pond system.
  • Less toxic to koi and goldfish than any other MG&F product on the market.
  • Can be shipped NON-HAZMAT legally anywhere in the U.S.

Debride ProHealth

Broad Spectrum Koi & Goldfish Health Protection

Debride ProHealth calms fishs, reduces losses, eases stress, minimizes infection and aids healing, thereby helping to protect fishs during illness, handling and transportation. Debride ProHealth also helps detoxify the free ions of heavy metals present in the pond such as zinc, iron or copper which can be lethal to fishs and invertebrates.

Debride ProHealth forms a multi-layered protective slime coating on fish’s skin, protecting them during handling and minimizing infection. The coating works as a healing aid for fishs with bruises, missing scales, or frayed fins. The multi-layered protective slime coating is formed by special polymer colloids and is compatible with the use of salt.

Debride ProHealth combines concentrated skin slime replacers with the addition of vitamin B12 which aids in the more normal healing process of injured fishes.

VERY IMPORTANT: Debride ProHealth DOES NOT interfere with the fish’s gills or breathing, or with the measurements of water quality test kits.

This is an excellent product to use anytime fish are sick for ANY reason. Debride ProHealth will help accelerate the healing process thus minimizing damage to the fish.
