Water Change, No Conditionert?

[SchottayB]

40% waterchange, using just a tad of tap water conditioner... is it a bad thing?

I did a 50% water change two weeks ago (using the tap water treatment), now doing another just before I go on holiday.

Drained 40% out, started getting the fresh water setup and I am like 5mL tapwater conditioner short, I'd forgot I was running out!

Should be ok...? There is SOME in there, just not enough as reccomended by the bottle instructions...

Cheers

What type of conditioner, 5ml of tapsafe might be ok, 5ml short of seachem prime would be disasterous.

 

[minnnt]

5ml of prime? 200 litre water change?

It's a 190 litre tank so i'm guessing it will be something like tapsafe.

I know it's embarrassing !!

Urm... let me get the bottle out of the bin

.... Nurtafin Aque +Plus is what I've used. Say's 10ml per 40L. I have used 10ml for 50L so it's not that bad I hope?

Should be fine mate. Make sure you get Seachem Prime next time!

Edit: it's not even 5ml that I was shot what am I on about! I've totaly lost the plot now

I think it's best if I give this hobby up, looks like you can only keep fish if you have A+ in math!

I agree... i will have the Keyholes and the Bolivians.

Haha! I've told you... you can have the angle when I'm back from holiday as I want to replace him with two or three babys to try for a pair!

My rams just refuse to grow, well they have a little not much. The Keyholes are right fat.... you know what! They are huge now they was only babys when I got them lol.

Seachem Prime is the most concentrated I've heard of
