Okay I’ll convert to prime.
you guys have reminded me enough times. Was using tetra, but prime does seem to have high regard here. Is prime just for dechlorinator and chloramines in the tap water? Or what does 2x mean?

For prime. 1 cap is for 50 gallons. 2x will be 2 caps, XXX is 3 caps, 4x is 4 caps (200g) worth of water treatment. If parameter issues arise u can 2x to XXX dosage.
For me personally, I've noticed when I do not treat my well water during a change. My polys will shake there heads side to side. Which appears to look like a sneeze and it's repetitive where the water is spouting into the tank. I suspect its the chlorine/chloramine causing this.
Prime® removes chlorine, chloramine and detoxifies ammonia. Prime® converts ammonia into a safe, non-toxic form that is readily removed by the tank's biofilter. Prime® may be used during tank cycling to alleviate ammonia/nitrite toxicity.
