[debbie888]

How long after using methleyne blue does it take for the tank to clear.....?


I also split some on my kitchen worktop and all over my hand.....and I cannot get it off.....I am having a bad day.....time for a stella I think !!!!

when i have used it in the past its taken a good few days!! looks awful on the worktops, i would try to bleach it out>>> maybe??

on your hands try puttin salt in your hands and rubbing it slightliy wet with some fairy liquid
i still have stained seals in my tank tho, not sure that will ever go, the water will prob clear by the morning
sounds like your having the day from hell, Debbs, feel so sorry for you and i hope it all starts to get better

I spilled some on my new white trainers in work about 12 months ago, and the stains are still there now, despite about 6 cycles in the washing machine, its an absolute b*gger to get off anything!
As mentioned, bleach or some sort of solvent ie white spirit/turps would be your best bet

A briillo pad usually fetches the stains out on your surfaces.

dont know if its anything like the dye in myxazin but i put some in my tank the other night and looked down to see i had spilt some on the cream rug in the living room, straight away got vanish carpet mousse and spent the next 15 mins franticly spraying and scrubbing, eventually got it off , missus in bed blissfuly unaware stain removed doghouse avoided lol

I'd be wary of using bleach near a fish tank. Would the fumes be harmful to the fish? It contains chlorine which makes me wonder...
