BACTERIA ? NEED OPINION ASAP

[PACU916]

BOUGHT FROM PETSMART

TOP FIN BACTERIA SUPPLEMENT WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS PRODUCT ..... DOES IT WORK AND CAN YOU OVERDOSE A TANK WITH IT... I HAVE MY FISH SITTING IN A BUCKET .... MY MAIN TANK STARTED LEAKING SO I HAVE 2 TRANSFER THE FISH ASAP I NEED TO STABILIZE MY 55 GALLON BACKUP

ANY HELP PLEASE

Based on what you've stated thus far...

I would suggest transferring the substrate, decor and filters from your leaking tank into the 55 gal as well as the fish.... there should be enough bacteria on those items to prevent much of a spike...

do water changes as necessary for the next couple of days to prevent spikes from getting too high... or use Prime to bind the ammonia/nitrite until the bacterial colony can multiply...

No, the fluval alone should be good. One more thing, unlock the caps button.
