i add SAFE/PRIME into tank *treat ENTIRE TANK VOLUME*.. then filler up..
why are you adding stability..
Hi All,
Every time I do WC I use Python hose and put the new water in a big container neer the Aquarium, then I add Prime & Stability to the water, then I add the water to the Aquarium 50% WC. Can I do the following:
Add prime & Stability in the remaining water in the Aquarium, then add the new water directly from tap to the Aquarium?
Thanks

Why are you using stability?
You add prime or safe for the total volume of tank. Run hose into tank making sure temp is ok. In the winter micro bubbles seem to bother the fish. Some of the fish loose some slime coat on their dorsal fin, especially with winter water directly into the tank.
Thank u to all guys and girls for all your help and hard work at NADA Chicago 2016 [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
When I first started My aquarium about 2 years ago, I had cloudy water at the begining, then I went to the pet store to ask them, they adviced me to use Stability, I do it eversince
well, there is no need to waste your money.. if your tank is 2 yrs old

Thanks All,
I will do this from now on also I wont be using Stability
The cloudy water that occurs after setting up a tank is a bacterial bloom and is a part of the cycling process that only lasts for several days (the cycling itself takes 6-8 weeks). As long as your water has no nitrItes or ammonia then your tank is cycled and you do not need to use Stability. Big waste of money.

I do the exact same thing as nibilbb, scared to death of getting chlorine in the tank. 2 questions, why treat the entire volume if the original water is safe, and how long does the prime continue to "work"
