https://www.thesprucepets.com/treat-fish-for-ammonia-burns-2925396 Check this out I’m not trying to be mean man. But there are reasons hundreds of pages are wrote on this stuff because there is proof behind it. Your fish might be just fine on the outside but now if you don’t have the the beneficial bacteria and did get a small spike you now made them just a little more weak to infections. Your explanation of why you think adding them all at one time is silly but thank god it worked for your fish. I’m not attacking you and you are right there are all kinds of reef and aquarium keeping practices. But there are basic practices that are used as the general right thing to do for your tank inhabitants that you chose to own. I’ve read your thread and you are going to do things the way you want to do them and it’s pretty clear you are ok with that. As I said happy reefing man enjoy it it’s a blast when it all works out. Going back and forth isn’t worth it hope all works in your favor
