Did a tank cloud for a few days

Update: After about a day and a half my tank was about 50% less cloudy. I added water clarifier so I'm not sure if it did that or if it went away on its own. Changed from 2 to 4 stars. I used less than the recommended amount and it still clouded my tank. The bottle says the cloudiness filters out quickly, but that's not the case. I will probably need to change at least 50% of the water. I only gave it 2 stars because at least it didn't kill my fish.

Pros
  • Several competitors

Do you have hard water? .Then do not use.

Do not use if the tap water is as hard as mine. After the clear 75 gallon tank was used to adjust the pH to 8.0, it turned into a cloudy, milky mass. I waited for the canister and HOB filter to empty but it didn't work. I had to do a 75 percent water change which cleared things up but it wasn't enough so the next day I did a 25 percent water change with Seachem Prime. At that time I was refilling my new tank so there were no fish in it but I had live plants that I was concerned about. Alsoโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Interval

This thing ruined my fish tank!

First picture before this thing! In the second photo, my aquarium was starting to look like it had been used! It looks like a toilet! My fish are going crazy. It's been 48 hours! I added water. I've tried everything. My beautiful aquarium is ruined! In the end I got a refund. I had to empty the whole tank. Aha! It ruined my water filter and it was brand new. This company should be banned from selling. Update - so I ended up cleaning the ENTIRE tank. What a headache. I cleaned my $70 filter butโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Problems

Not for the faint of heart

I have used this product before with no problems but made a terrible mistake and apparently got an expired bottle which I wasn't paying attention to. I ended up killing 9 of my 12 fish (who died within 3-5 minutes after diluting the product and adding it to my 75 gallon tank). In particular, the one that survived will be maimed forever. I was heartbroken but I take responsibility for not checking the expiry date on the bottle and I can only assume that was the culprit as I have used thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Not sure

Works great for me.

I have found this product to be very helpful in keeping my tank at 7.0. Don't expect this miracle cure to keep your tank at a perfect 7.0 forever. This is to help you avoid sudden pH shifts, maintain a relatively stable pH between aquarium changes, or bring the pH back to 7.0 if something has changed. at 7.0 and if the pH is changing rapidly, this is an indicator that something is wrong with the general water quality of the aquarium. Just enforcing a pH of 7.0 doesn't mean that water changesโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • The list will be long.
