My Tank Thread
Put it in the filter, you want as much water flow through it as possible.I bought some biomax at Petco (on sale $9 for 500g). Do I just throw it in loose in the filter? Throw it in the tank loose like rocks, or put it in a media bag and put it in the tank?
I'm not a huge fan of the seeded sponge method. You probably get good bacteria coverage on the outside but just not enough flow through the sponge to take advantage of the surface area.I DID use a seeded sponge and I already started treatment. The seeded sponge didn't work for me. It must not have had enough bacteria to support a porcupine puffer
BioSpira is my "go to" product for QT. It is easy to find and it works well for me. I like the fact it was developed by Dr Tim. I would use the Dr Tim's One and Only, but it isn't available locally.Stability does take some time to work...BioSpira seemed to get busy immediately for me....
