can I use this with my live plant tank? will it bad for the live plant?

People are using this to treat tap water before watering plants so with that being, yes I think it's safe for live plant tanks.

Does this clean the water right away so i can add fish right after or wait for it to settle

It treats the water instantly, but if this is a brand new tank, please read up about cycling your tank... I don't want your fish to die if you just set up a brand new tank and are adding fish right away.

Do you have to treat the water and then put it in the tank or can you do water change and then immediately add this stuff? I've been adding water and then this stuff rigth after in the tank??! Also- directions don't sepcify do you use enough ML of this stuff to treat all water in your tank or just amount of new water b…

You should add stress coat to the water BEFORE you add it to the tank, in a bucket. The correct dosage is 1/2 a ml per gallon so for 4 gallons you would need 2 ml. You can safely double or triple the dose to replace slime coat or for fin regrowth. You only treat the water you are adding (separately before you add it), there is no reason to treat water you have already treated. So yes you would just add conditioner to the 4 gallons you are replacing. But of course when you first start your tank you must add conditioner to all the water (before you add your fish) because that would be straight tap water that has never been conditioned. This is great stuff. Hope this helps.

How often are you supposed to use this product?

I use this product every time I change the water in my fish tank, whether it's partial changes or full water changes. But the beauty of this product is how little of it you have to use (2mL conditions 2 gal).

プロ仕様のカルキ抜き（兼粘膜保護剤）、業者でも使っている人は多かった

個人的に最高のカルキ抜き兼粘膜保護剤と思う。量に関して割と雑に扱っても副作用が起きにくく、業者でも愛用者が多かった。が、2026年時点で日本国内で買えるところが殆ど無いのが欠点。

Great for houseplants too!

I have been adding this to my watering can every time I water my house plants for a few months now and I have noticed that my sulky peace lily has fewer and fewer brown and yellow edges to it’s leaves. I have had this plant for years and the new growth is lush and green. I have noticed that new plants watered with this in the water have not had any discoloured leaves, so as far as I am concerned it is working well for my purposes.

Muy buen producto

Lo compre por que esta catalogado como uno de los mejores acondicionadores de agua para peces, el tamaño en muy conveniente para el precio que tiene. Un detalle particular, tenia un alga verde que estaba creciendo en las paredes de mi acuario y este producto me ha ayudado a controlarla.
