No. API’s Tap Water Conditioner still works with Chloramine, it’s just not as efficient. For Chlorine, the dosage is 1ml per 20G. For Chloramine, the dosage is 1ml per 5G, so the 16 oz. would only treat around 2,400G instead of 9,600G with Chlorine. Still, a bottle would last you over […]
I have my GH and KH testing from my tap, but I didn’t do them with a baseline test, I assume that as the water sits the GH and KH will be used up slowly and the pH drops? Am I correct?

Did you ever do your tap water baseline testing? What were the numbers right out the tap, at 24 hours and 48 hours? Mainly the pH, GH and KH but also the others, if noteworthy.
What percentage of the 1/4 full bucket is crushed coral, as opposed to the amount of crushed coral that […]
I didn’t do the baseline testing, I forgot about it, ugh. I can empty the bucket and start a baseline testing though. I just put crushed coral in the bucket I didn’t measure how much I would need for the 125 gallon or any other tanks, I’m not really sure how much […]
With Dr. Tim’s One And Only, you DO NOT need to do a fishless cycle although you could still do it to err on the side of caution to be sure your bottle of One And Only did not get harmed by overheating or freezing. The actual directions for Dr. Tim’s One And Only […]

Lenny, the other cat fish is Plecosdomus….I have treated the tank now…I read not to use salt because of the cat fish..I had halved the dosage because of the catfish………..I am just sick about this..,..I am watching them so closely……….Janis oh and my goal was to set […]
Dora,
You know better than to hijack a thread. LOL
Yes, for labyrinth fish, I’ve written many times that you should not use full dosing of Melafix or Pimafix for them. A 50% dose seems to work OK for them so do PWC’s as needed to dilute the initial dosage down to 50% and then only […]
It’s not good to constantly overdose the dechlor. Your tank will eventually build up a very high level of the dechlor chemicals (usually Sodium Thiosulfate and EDTA). For example, lets use 1 capful and a 10G tank for simplicity.
If you fill the tank to start with so it has 10G of water and […]
