I will try this product with a little help from mis padres, and see how it goes

thanks, how much is the price range of this stuff because as I said, I make 6 bucks a week. I also would probably have to get this stuff online unless sold in petsmart or petco. It seems as if it would help my situation but out of anything, Ultimately  the decisions I can make are based on money.

can I do 16 every 2 weeks? also if the capacity is an inch over the limit of inch per gallon  will it be fine?

Hello, I bought some aquarium salt today and I am wondering how it helps in an aquarium. A general question but I am trying to cycle a 36 gallon at the moment. Any answers are appreciated.  

are there any other fish for algae control   also we will hopefully be getting 6 neons and 5 glofish   any fish that can be algae eaters that are small would really help   I don't know if we shold keep the mollies because I would like other fish in there instead. I also have a kit and am...
