The mineral content of water is vital to the fish that live in it.

Rainfall, water purifiers, ultra violet sterilisers and even the passage of time will all lower the natural mineral level. Fish cannot obtain every mineral they need from their diet they have to take these in from the water they live in. Reminex replaces these essential minerals, improves the coloration, as well as adding to the skin quality and putting sparkle into the pond water. Based on montmorillionite clay Reminex and Reminex plus contain a tonic that the fish enjoy and find stimulating. Reminex can be can be used directly in the pond, or in a concentrated bath, or mixed with feed. The Reminex tub provides some guidelines for use and indicates a maximum dose level of 300 grams per 1000 gallons. This will cause clouding just like the clay ponds in Japan and is recommended off-season in Spring and Autumn when Koi-keepers are not spending time at the pond. This high dose will improve the condition of fish that have just wintered or about to do so and improves the intensity of the colour of Koi. To simply boost the mineral level of the pond the hobbyist can determine a dose level - 50 grams per 1000 will add some minerals 10-20 grams per 1000 will help to put a sparkle into the water. 4 grams in 25 gallons should be sufficient for a bath and Koi can be left in this for as long as oxygen levels and water quality permit. To feed Reminex soak 250 grams of pellets in 7 grams of Reminex which has been dissolved in a little water or orange juice. Feed immediately as drying the feed could lower the mineral content. Like all natural products the user can customise Reminex. There is no conflict between Reminex and pond medications and no need to switch off the UV during use.
