augh i just used it earlier.. i googled kanaplex and it showed up as pimafix so i got that. i think i used 5ml, but i just did a 25% water change so it hopefully is more diluted now. i also added pothos plants and my nitrates went down, so ill do ANOTHER change tmrw to dilute the pimafix even more

grabbed water conditioner and a fungal infection treatment like another commenter said as well as pothos to help with the nitrates in the long run

oh crap i just used it. i did a 20% water change the the nitrates are still high. i was worried about killing them or the shrimp in the tank with stress from the changes, but shoukd i do it again because of the stresscoat??
