Bass℞ Frequently Asked Questions
Will it hurt the fish?
When used according to the label directions, Bass℞ will not harm the fish. In fact using Bass℞ is beneficial to freshwater fish.How does Bass℞ work?
Freshwater fish like bass expend a substantial amount of energy to maintain proper electrolyte balance and preventing loss of electrolytes to the water they live in. Maintaining proper electrolyte balance is called osmoregulation. When a fish is caught and held (as in a live well), it experiences angling stress that causes the fish difficulty in meeting the energy requirements for osmoregulation. This stress-induced energy deficit leads to an imbalance of electrolytes that affects all vital bodily functions. Bass℞ fights these effects by helping to restore and maintain the proper electrolyte balance in fish and buffers their body against acidosis. By reducing the energy a fish expends and buffering their body against acidosis during capture and holding, Bass℞ markedly improves their chance to survive. While there are no guarantees, Bass℞ helps fish recover from angling stress, giving you a better chance of weighing-in live fish.Can Bass℞ be used with the new oxygen infusion systems?
Bass℞ can be used with oxygen infusion systems that DO NOT use electrolysis to produce oxygen. Electrolysis-based oxygen infusion systems can convert chloride, one of the important electrolytes in Bass℞, to deadly chlorine which is toxic to fish. So you should never use Bass℞ with one of these systems.Is Bass℞ FDA approved?
Currently there is no program within the FDA to approve a product like Bass℞. The FDA approves drugs. However Bass℞ contains ingredients that the FDA has classified as generally regarded as safe or GRAS substances.
