Questions
If I'm starting a new aquarium (3.5 gallon), how soon can I put in the fish after adding AquaSafe Plus?
- AquaSafe Plus works in less than 5 minutes, even in new tanks with all new water.

Is this safe for baby turtles
- Yes, it is, but we do make an AquaSafe for Reptiles and Amphibians as well, which is a different formula, more appropriate to turtles.

When I'm starting a new tank 10 gallon should I only put 10 mil. Or more the first time
- According to the label, you need 5ml per 10 gallons.

When doing a partial water change on my 15 gallon tank, should I dose at a rate to equal the WHOLE tank volume, or should dose at only a rate that equals only the NEW water I am adding to the tank? I usually change out three to four gallons.
- You only need to dose the new water you are putting in. Good job on doing partial water changes. I do them every 7-10 days on my tank, it definitely helps keep the water in great condition for my fish.

- Read the instructions on YOUR bottle. They may vary. Mine advises to shake the bottle before using at a rate of 1ml per gallon. Thats about 14 drops per gallon or 1 drop/cup. Add it to the water before you add it to the tank. I let the water sit next to the tank 1/2 a day so ambient temperature will match the tank water.

Can this be used for a pac man frogs water dish and misting water?
- Yes, it would be safe to use for that.
Helpful?
can I pour this with fish in it?
- yes, just not directly on them. i suggest mixing it with water and then pouring it in.

Our city is switching to Chloraminated water in a couple of weeks. I’ve always used Aquasafe in my aquariums. Will it remove the extra ammonia created now? Or do I have to switch brands?
- Yes. Aquasafe conditions water tanks with perfection. Just follow the instructions so you put the correct amount of the product for your tanks.

What happens if you overdose? The bottle said 2 teaspoons/10mL per 10 gallons but Tetra said in the questions to only use 1 teaspoon (which is what I originally thought it was too). But I already put 2 teaspoons in my water. Is it safe for my fish?
- Yes, your inadvertent mistake is fine. There is additional dosage allowed especially if you are cleaning more than 50% of your tank at a time. Your fish will be fine. You can resume normal dosage next treatment time.
Helpful?
When adding clearwater do I have to remove the fishes out of the tank?
- No, this product can be added to the tank with the fish in it. Always be sure to do partial water changes on a regular basis and keep them small, to prevent shock and keep the tank healthy and balanced.
