Troubleshooting

Cloudy Water After Treatment

Cloudiness can be caused by adding too much conditioner or stirring the water too vigorously. Ensure the correct dose is used and allow the water to settle.

Fish Showing Signs of Stress

If fish are stressed, check water parameters with a test kit. Ensure proper dosage and water temperature. Perform a partial water change if necessary.
