FAQ: Is aquavitro remediation™ safe to use in a tank where I'm keeping _________?

Yes! To the best of our knowledge, there are no fish, invertebrates, or plants that have a specific aversion to remediation™. However, "remediation™ Tolerant" is not the same as "Water Change Tolerant".  Many fish, plants, and invertebrates are stressed by sudden high-percentage water changes.  For standard community tanks, we recommend water changes of 30% of the tank or less, and for more sensitive tank inhabitants, we recommend no more than 20% of the tank at a time.  

Similarly, many fish are stressed by being kept in a tank that is still cycling.  If there is ammonia or nitrite in the water, we recommend to dose Prime® or another ammonia detoxifier regularly to protect the fish from these chemicals.
