Ponds Without Plants: Add 2-1/2 cupfuls of Pond Salt per each 100 U.S. gallons of pond water. Distribute salt evenly around the perimeter of the pond. After one hour, measure the salt level; salt level should be 0.2%. If the salt level is too high, make a partial water change.

Ponds With Plants: Certain aquatic plants are sensitive to salt; use this lower salt level when plants are present. Add 1-1/4 cupfuls of Pond Salt per each 100 U.S. gallons of pond water. Distribute the salt evenly around the perimeter of the pond. After one hour, measure the salt level; salt level should be 0.1%. If the salt level is too high, make a partial water change.

Disease Treatment for Pond Fish: In a clean plastic container, dissolve 2-1/2 cupfuls in 10 U.S. gallons of pond water for 5 to 10 minutes. DO NOT use tap water. Carefully put the infected fish in the salt bath (2.0%) for 5 to 10 minutes. DO NOT leave fish in the salt bath for longer than 10 minutes! Be sure to cover the bath container with netting or similar material to prevent fish from jumping out of the bath container. After 10 minutes, place the treated fish back into the pond.


Keep Pond Salt out of reach of children and pets that could possibly ingest.
