EIHO Chito-Clear: The Natural Magnet for Crystal Clear Water

EIHO Chito-Clear is a premium, 100% natural water clarifying agent derived from Chitin, a biopolymer found in the shells of crustaceans. Unlike harsh chemical flocculants that can stress delicate livestock, Chito-Clear works through a gentle biological process to bind microscopic particles together, making them large enough to be trapped by your mechanical filtration or settle at the bottom of the tank.

This environmentally friendly formula is specifically designed for Freshwater, Marine, and Reef aquariums where water clarity has been compromised. It targets "cloudy water" caused by suspended organic debris, bacterial blooms and even fine dust from new substrates. Because it is a natural derivative, it is exceptionally safe for sensitive ecosystems and does not alter the pH or KH of your water.

Why You Need This

We’ve all dealt with that frustrating "hazy" look that ruins the view of a beautiful scape. Chito-Clear addresses the common visual and health "pain points" for hobbyists:

• The "Dusty" Tank: Quickly clears fine particulate matter after a major rescape or substrate addition.

• Bacterial Blooms: Binds the free-floating bacteria that cause "milky" water during a new tank cycle.

• Organic Overload: Removes dissolved organic compounds ($DOCs$) that can lead to algae outbreaks if left unchecked.

• Filter Efficiency: By "clumping" tiny particles together, it helps your filter floss work ten times more effectively.

• Green Water Woes: Assists in clearing light cases of suspended algae (Chlorella) by pulling cells out of the water column.

Expert Instructions ("The Easy Way")

To get that "fish floating in air" look, follow these simple steps to prep your tank for total clarity:

1. Check your filter: Ensure your mechanical filtration (filter wool or socks) is clean before starting. The particles have to go somewhere!

2. Add the juice: Dose 10ml for every 50 liters of aquarium water. Pour it directly into an area with high water flow, like a filter outlet or near a powerhead.

3. Watch the magic: You will see the water get slightly cloudier for the first 30–60 minutes—don't panic! This is the "clumping" phase where the Chitin is grabbing onto debris.

4. Polish the water: Within 6–12 hours, your water should be noticeably clearer. For extremely stubborn clouds, you can repeat the dose after 24 hours.

5. Clean up: Once the water is crystal clear, rinse out your filter wool to remove all the trapped gunk.

Expert Tip: Chito-Clear is actually a fantastic "biological booster." Because Chitin is a natural food source for beneficial bacteria, using this regularly not only keeps your water clear but actually helps support a healthy, robust bio-filter!

FAQ Section

Is EIHO Chito-Clear safe for shrimp and planted tanks?

Yes, absolutely! Since it is a natural crustacean derivative, it is one of the safest clarifiers on the market for ornamental shrimp like Neocaridina and caridina. It is also completely harmless to all aquatic plants.

How often can I use this?

I recommend using it after every weekly water change or whenever you’ve been "fiddling" in the tank and kicked up some dust. It’s a great preventative measure to keep organics low.

Does it remove ammonia or nitrites?

While it doesn't directly neutralize NH3 or NO2 like a water conditioner does, by removing the organic solids that decay into ammonia, it helps keep your overall water quality much higher.

Can I overdose this product?

Because it is natural, it has a very wide safety margin. However, stick to the recommended dose; adding more won't make the water clear "faster," as the Chitin needs time to bond with the particles.
