I started feeding selcon when some new fish arrived. The fish died over the next 48 hours. They had no signs of Illness apart from hiding a lot. I think it was shipping stress.

however, I was feeding about 3-4 ml of selcon for a 200g tank. Reccomended is 0.5 - 1m per feed. It supposedly has antioxidants in it that can cause an ORP drop.

anyone here have experience with selcon? Do you think that does dropped the ORP? I imagine most of their clients have 40-100g tanks, not sure if that warning applies to me.
