Adding ABCDE into aquarium at a go!

[the oracle]

Can i actually add them together at a go before i pour them into the aquarium? I did that yest and it cause my whole tank turn really Milky. There is a chemical reaction when all the addictive are together and give a fizzy sound like soda drink. Is threr a problem with what i am doing?

Definitely!!

Reefkeeping is a complex mix of biology, chemistry, physics, mechanical and electrical subjects!

Calcium, PH, alkalinity and other chemicals all are interlinked and a drastic cause and effect can happen if you do not understand their relationship!

Additives have instructions on their bottles.... follow that as a guide.

I also suggest you read up on water parameters by doing a search on the pinned up links in the New to the Hobby forum or google stuff. There are so many articles out there... KNOWLEDGE IS KEY!

Okie! That was a risky move by me! Lucky all my living thing in the aqurium is alive.
