I have a half bottle of prime around 4 years old. Do you think it still good?

Did a quick search and according to Seachem, there is no expiration date. Here's a link.

If you have a bunch of Discus or other expensive fish do not use it. Toss it. Compare the cost of Prime to the cost of your fish. You do not even say how big the half bottle is.

It's a 1 Gal with about 2+ quarts left. I only use a little bit because I'm on well water which has 2ppm nitrate as tested by the state. But thank you for the reply because I had the same thoughts but based on the reply's I got I feel confidant enough that I can use it.

+1 - Prime is cheap - good discus are not. Not worth the risk.
