You're paraphrasing my post for unclear reasons and - if I do say so myself - somewhat poorly. - I did not say 'pour stability into your tank every day' or 'the more the better or 'I promise everything will be just fine'. What I actually said was:So lets just keep pouring stability in our tank daily, nothing bad gonna happen here, I promise everything will be just fine. Wait isnt this the post where everything just died? Whoops yeah stability good with fish more the better.
"MnFish1 said: Stability is a cycling bacteria product. It's used when cycling a new tank OR - adding new bio load to a relatively immature tank. It's pretty simple here."
Stability is not designed as a daily 365 days/year product, nor did I say it was. Additionally, any product - if over-used can cause problems. So my comment was based on the assumption that the OP followed the instructions on the bottle (Which is why I posted a link to the instructions below my post). Additionally - I do not think that stability is what caused 'everything to die' in the OP's tank - if it was used correctly - and unless we hear different - I assume thats the case.
EDIT - here is a quote from the directions:
"Directions
Shake well before use. Turn off UV/ozone. Use 1 capful (5 mL) for each 40 L (10 US gallons) on the first day with a new aquarium. Then use 1 capful for each 80 L (20 US gallons) daily for 7 days. Fish and other aquatic species may be introduced at any time as long as dosage is maintained for 7 days. For optimum biofilter performance use 1 capful for each 80 L (20 US gallons) once a month or with each water change and whenever introducing new fish or whenever medicating an aquarium. Product shelf life is 4 years from date of manufacture."
