Product Overview
ALPA ZEO is a premium aqua-grade, clinoptilolite-rich zeolite formulated for rapid ammonia capture, odor reduction and improved pond-water quality. Its high Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC ≥450 meq/100 g) provides strong binding of ammonium and other harmful cations, supporting healthier shrimp and fish culture.
Composition
Silicon Dioxide (SiO₂).
Aluminium Oxide (Al₂O₃).
Calcium Oxide (CaO).
Sodium/Magnesium/Potassium (Na₂O, MgO, K₂O).
Iron oxides and trace minerals.
CEC ≥450 meq/100 g.
Key Benefits
High-Performance Ammonium Binding: High CEC clinoptilolite rapidly exchanges and captures NH₄⁺, helping reduce the ammonium burden in pond water.
Helps Reduce Ammonia Stress: Supports better water chemistry by lowering available ammonium, helping minimize ammonia-related stress on shrimp and fish.
Improves Pond Water Quality: Adsorbs selected impurities and undesirable compounds, contributing to cleaner, clearer and more stable pond water.
Controls Odor-Causing Compounds: Helps adsorb compounds associated with foul odors and deteriorating pond conditions, supporting a fresher pond environment.
Supports Pond Stability: Its porous mineral structure provides ongoing binding capacity, helping maintain a more balanced culture environment.
Effective Under High Organic Load: Useful as a mineral management tool in ponds experiencing organic accumulation, water-quality deterioration or increased ammonia pressure.
Supports Shrimp & Fish Performance: By improving the pond environment and reducing water-quality stress, it supports better survival, growth and overall culture performance.
Recommended Uses
For ammonia management in shrimp and fish ponds.
Helps bind ammonium (NH₄⁺) and reduce ammonia-related stress.
Recommended during pond preparation to improve initial pond conditions.
Supports routine water-quality management during the culture cycle.
Helps reduce foul odor and undesirable gases associated with poor pond conditions.
Supports better water clarity and pond stability.
Useful in ponds with high organic load or deteriorating water quality.
Helps maintain a healthier environment for shrimp and fish, supporting survival and growth.
Apply based on ammonia levels and water-quality analysis for best results.
Mode of Action
ALPA ZEO works primarily through cation exchange and adsorption. Its high-CEC, porous clinoptilolite structure selectively exchanges and captures NH₄⁺ (ammonium) and other undesirable cations from pond water, helping reduce ammonium load and associated ammonia stress.
Its porous surface also adsorbs certain organic impurities and compounds that contribute to foul odor and poor water quality. This combined action supports cleaner water, improved pond stability and a more favorable environment for shrimp and fish culture.
Dosage & Usage
For shrimp and fish farming.
Broadcast evenly over the pond surface during pond preparation and routine culture.
Apply periodically according to ammonia levels and water-quality analysis.
