What does ridX look like, i get my water from tap water.

Just google it and search around on the forums for how people are using it, lots of information around, just gotta dig it up.

I would take the time to read through RD's probiotic thread as well, its an extremely educational and valuable read.

ridX is at just about all hardware stores, blue and yellow box. its an additive for septic systems, it contains beneficial bacteria that dissolve solid wastes.

Def read RDs thread. I honestly dont know why everyone isnt using it especially if you have canisters.

Short story 1 tbls spoon per 75 gal of water. Lots of methods for adding it to the tank. I put it in a fine mesh bag after wc in let it sit in the tank. In the direction of the filter/sump return, Through out the day i squeeze the crap out of it. The more it clouds the water the better. Either that night or the next day i remove the bag and dump the left over bran. Fish heal so much faster from injuries, filters stay cleaner and water too.

I use safe its a more concentrated version of prime. Lasts a hell of allot longer. I cant remember how long ago i purchased it.

I really wouldnt mess with ph. Unless your keeping really delicate fish or the tap is ph leans way to far in one direction. I can post of vid of how i dose with the ridx just gotta dig it up

I feel like if i dont squeeze it out i dont get much of thegood stuff in the water. Less clouding if i just let it sit.
