AQUACULTURE TRANSPORT AND TRANSFER AID

• Promotes a healthy aquatic environment for fish and shrimp transport and transfer.
• Reduces or eliminates losses of stock due to organic pollution or toxic ammonia concentration.
• Eliminates turbidity.
• Reduces or eliminates off-flavor problems.
• Enzymes include: protease, amylase, esterase, cellulase, xylanase, but low dosage applied will not threaten the air supply of the crop being transported.
• All strains are highly salt tolerant, so that the formula is useful in fresh or salt water.
• Bacillus strains will tolerate low pH, but nitrifiers prefer neutral to alkaline water
• Takes up very little refrigerator space and is easy to transport.
• Effective over a wide temperature range 49° to 98° F (9.4° to 37°C).
• Effective over a wide pH range (6.5 to 8.5).
• Non-toxic, safe to handle and store. 

• Add 25 ppm of ALKEN CLEAR-FLO® 1400 to hatchery, nursery, or culture water daily for three days prior to transfer. We recommend shipping small fish, larvae, and post-larvae in plastic bags filled with 20% water and a head-space of pure oxygen.
• For fish smaller than 7 cm and shrimp, add 200 - 300 ppm (usually works out to 3 drops) of ALKEN CLEAR-FLO® 1400.
• For fish larger than 7 cm, add 100 - 200 ppm of ALKEN CLEAR-FLO® 1400 to the transfer water.
• When transferring weak fish or shrimp, under heavy stress, or with disease outbreak, dosage may be adjusted up to 1000 ppm of ALKEN CLEAR-FLO® 1400 in the transfer water.
• Add 10 to 20 ppm of ALKEN CLEAR-FLO® 1400 to nursery water upon transfer of shrimp larvae.
• For Post-Transfer maintenance, Alken-Murray recommends that clients treat the new location with ALKEN CLEAR-FLO® 1006 if the pond or lake is larger than 500,000 gallons of water, but small garden ponds ponds perform well with continued applications of ALKEN CLEAR-FLO®  1400, but for maximum economy, they can switch to maintaining the new pond with ALKEN CLEAR-FLO®  1002.

ALKEN CLEAR-FLO® 1400 is packaged in 5 gallon LDPE pails with pour-spouted lid that contains a Teflon filter, carrying handle and tear-skirted lid. An STP media vial, to verify survival of liquid portion of product is included with each lot number of product shipped.. Standard 1X-product has a three (3) to six (6) month shelf life, when stored at cool room temperature. Store standard product in a cool dry place or refrigerate to double shelf-life.. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or open wounds. Wash hands after handling.
