Directions
A separate hospital tank is recommended. Match its temperature and pH to the main tank. Antibiotics can affect nitrifying bacteria in the filter.
- Remove activated carbon and other chemical filter media. Turn off UV sterilisers and protein skimmers.
- Add 1 tablet per 20 litres. Crush or dissolve the tablet in a cup of tank water if you want it to spread faster.
- Keep aeration strong for the whole treatment.
- Repeat every 24 to 48 hours for 3 to 5 days. Change 20% to 25% of the water before each new dose.
- On day 6, change 30% of the water and put activated carbon back in the filter.
Always follow directions on product packaging.
