Ive quarantined and treated full dose (according bottle) API test is useless and my Hanna checker from Amazon arrival date has now been updated from Tuesday to Wednesday. Assuming the 40 drops I added, According to the instructions on the bottle, is m therapeutic, I now need to do a water change and will need to get the copper levels back up to it.
1. Should I chance waiting in the Checker to do the water change? Luckily I had a sponge cycling in my display tank that I used in my QT. it was good and slimy too. I might be ok ammonia wise.
2. Or do I absolutely need to do that water change? If so what’s a good estimate of what should be added if I do a 50% water change on a 10 gallon?
3. I checked 3 different pet stores and none of them carried Hanna checkers. Does any sell them offline?? I’m willing to go pick one up today if I have to.
