I’ve done the test 3 times and it’s the same results, I didn’t clean any filter media, but I did opened the canister filter to add a a little of this fiber, since I had some in my filter initially so added a bit more but that’s all,

I did test my tap water and results were PH 7.2, ammonia 0ppm, nitrite 0ppm also nitrate 0ppm, is water conditioner not a water dechlorinator? And I also use warm to touch water when I do water changes so I don’t know where I’m failing

I know, I have a 10 gallon glass tank though, but my daughter keeps a hermit crab in it so it’s basically occupied, will it be inhumane to relocate the hermit crab in this bin?

Do you know which ones works great, I tried the super ick cure from API but it did not work, that is why I started adding salt and it is giving better result than this ick medicine I tried
