Hi bros, can anyone tell me what is the problem?
I've managed to brew green water in my toyogo tub. After getting the intense green color for abt 7 days, I did a water change and seed abt 10% of the green water and added anti chlorine crystals and baking soda into the new water. However, the next day the whole tub water turns white and the fishes and stressed out! May I know What's the possible cause? Overdose of baking soda? Tks. |

Mine long expired but im still using and no problems leh.  Some of them hv even harden to become a lump. I simply break them apart before puting them in the water. I think impt thing is not to let the unused powder come into contact with water. |

Besides, baking powder cheap cheap nia mah. Some more it is an essential thing to add during WC, just like your de-chlorinator. So there is more than enough reasons to get new bottle if your bottle expired liao. |

Human cannot eat mah. But fish shouldnt be a problem. I understand that fishes dont drink water except those salt water fishes. So wats the problem even if the powder expire? |
