API POND SALT supplies electrolytes to improve fish respiration. Made from evaporated sea water and containing natural active ingredients such as a natural fish tonic, API POND SALT promotes the overall health of your fish by improving their gill function and reducing stress in a pond. This all-natural salt provides the essential electrolytes fish need for the uptake of oxygen and release of carbon dioxide and ammonia through the gills. API POND SALT should only be added to reduce stress during new pond setup and water changes or to promote disease recovery when solving specific fish health issues. Use API POND SALT when setting up a new pond, when changing water or treating disease. Make sure to take extra care when using salt with live plants, as some plants may be sensitive.

Can epsom salt be used** A: Epsom Salt is Magnesium Sulphate and salt normally used for ponds is Sodium Chloride. They are not the same thing and each is used for different things. **Q: Is this safe to use if my pond contains turtles ?** A: My pond has a turtle and Pablo is just fine after the application I did use slightly less than directed **Q: where is this made/packaged US, China?** A: The box says USA and I see no reason to doubt it. China isn't even in the top 10 of countries we import salt from. **Q: Will using this harm water liies or pond plants?** A: You should check the salt tolerance for the pants that you have. Some plants will tolerate a little salt while others will not. I have a few water lilies and added the recommended amount to my pond and they seem to be fine. I do regular water changes also. Hope this helps. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***Y on 13 August 2025* Great aquarium or pond salt. This is the brand I always buy and have been using for decades. Reliable and consistent. Quality never seems to change! I have it on repeat auto ship. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***. on 14 September 2020* Excellent for use as a brackish water treatment for turtles. Dissolves well. Great price for the quantity!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***N on 31 May 2024* I've started using a little sea salt with cichlids. I knew they were tolerant to salt levels and was beneficial to them. In fact, with added salt, I was surprised to be greeted with three fry. I'm not saying the salt made them "randy" but I've had more fish in a larger tank and never had any breeding and their life expectancy seemed lower. Now, given that experience, I decided to add salt to my 500 gallon pond with Shubunkin and Fantail Goldfish. Fancy goldfish, less expensive and smaller than koi for my pond size. As you may know, these are hearty fish but not immune from common ailments. Fin rot being common for decorative fish. Since water changes and muck removal are more difficult for an in-ground pond set-up, I have increased to amount of filtration (using filter cleaning and pour-outs as my water changes), increased the substrate sand depth and started adding API pond salt to boost their natural defenses and curb the underlying causes. 4 pounds is just under the recommended amount on the label and way over, by one cup, some others recommend from a web search. I stayed at the lowest recommendation because I use some extravagant marginal plants for Nitrate removal; with their impressive growths losing them would be just as costly as losing 12-to-16-inch adult fish. There are lots of options available from other manufacturers but API though I am wary of "amateur hobbyist" aquatic products, I'm equally warry of over-priced bulk volume venders with no proven record to substantiate their price against their product claims. Captive fish salt is fairly straight forward. So, in sum, I chose API for their price add volume needed against bulk item storage and other products unproven quality. Quality that can't be measured by the number of units sold, 5-star ratings and written reviews from casual hobbyists and patio decorators. No offense. I have too much value invested if you include the lives I've chosen to care for; no matter the "value" you give a fish or a plant against a dog for example. My partner cries the same for the loss of a fish as the loss of a dog. Keep that in mind as you consider my review. ## Frequently Bought Together - API POND SALT Pond Water Salt 4.4-Pound Container - API POND STRESS COAT Pond Water Conditioner 32-Ounce Bottle - Summit Clear-Water Barley Straw Pond Treatment, 2-Pack, Treats upto 2000 Gallons, 1000 Gallons per Bale --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/620103506-pond-salt-pond-water-salt-4-4-pound-container](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/620103506-pond-salt-pond-water-salt-4-4-pound-container) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
