Ideal for freshwater tanks, it supports disease recovery and should be added during water changes to maintain optimal aquatic conditions. ## Description Electrolytes are essential for the uptake of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide and ammonia through the gills. A lack of electrolytes may cause serious health problems. API® AQUARIUM SALT, made from evaporated sea water, provides these essential electrolytes. AQUARIUM SALT does not evaporate, and is not filtered out, so it should only be added with each water change. Care should be taken when using salt with live plants, as some plants may be sensitive. Review: Aquarium salt.. - Great product useful if you own an aquarium you know.. Review: Worth It for Sick Fish - I know there's a lot of controversy about using salt in freshwater, but I absolutely love this. My betta has been sick for the past 2 weeks (lethargic, not eating, not swimming). I have a 2.5 gallon tank. I put a little less than the recommended amount (salt for 2 gallons). The same night, my fish was more active and he came swimming over to eat.. He's been eating and more active since I added the salt 3 days ago. He still has something going on with his eyes so I ordered medicine for that, but the salt really helped his appetite and made him feel better. If you have a sick fish, I definitely recommend getting this. It won't cure your fish, but it helped mine feel great. It's definitely worth a shot. ## Features - Contains one (1) API AQUARIUM SALT Freshwater Aquarium Salt 16-Ounce Box - Promotes fish health and disease recovery with increased electrolytes - Improves respiration for fish in freshwater aquariums - Made from evaporated sea water for all-natural results - Use when changing water, when setting up a new freshwater aquarium and when treating fish disease ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000N3DXRG | | ASIN | B000N3DXRG | | Best Sellers Rank | #198,224 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #1,600 in Aquarium Water Treatments | | Brand Name | API | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (339) | | Date First Available | October 19, 2006 | | Included Components | Aquarium Salt 16oz | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Form | Granules | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Liquid Volume | 1 Pints | | Manufacturer | API | | Manufacturer | API | | Product Dimensions | 2.75 x 2.75 x 5.38 inches; 1 Pounds | | Target Species | Fish | | UPC | 317163011065 | | Unit Count | 454 Grams | ## Product Details - **Brand:** API - **Item Form:** Granules - **Item Weight:** 16 ounces - **Liquid Volume:** 1 Pints - **Manufacturer:** API ## Images ![Aquarium Salt 16oz - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91Ro2tWa-YL.jpg) ![Aquarium Salt 16oz - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91UvS8lMN2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Aquarium salt.. *by E***M on February 7, 2025* Great product useful if you own an aquarium you know.. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth It for Sick Fish *by A***R on September 18, 2017* I know there's a lot of controversy about using salt in freshwater, but I absolutely love this.

The packaging came in tack and it was plenty of salt for my 5 gallon fish tank. Will keep for the future tanks I set up and will be doing more research on the benefits of salt in freshwater aquariums. Recommended highly when needing to buy something online! ## Frequently Bought Together - Aquarium Salt 16oz - API STRESS COAT Aquarium Water Conditioner 16-Ounce Bottle - API QUICK START Freshwater and Saltwater Aquarium Nitrifying Bacteria 16-Ounce Bottle --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/10869341-aquarium-salt-16oz](https://www.desertcart.in/products/10869341-aquarium-salt-16oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
