Cultivated lichen algae is the key ingredient to this gel, acting as oxygen transporters through the gel membrane. Simply use the medical applicator to spread the Oxigel on your gills, and you have a membrane and catalyst that will transfer atmospheric oxygen to your underwater breathing organ for eight hours! It will even keep your gills moist and comfortable! Eschew bulky portable breathers. Switch to Oxigel today!
