I use Denitrol aquarium starter to add live bacteria to my new 120 gallon SW aquarium. On that bottle it says to always use Biotopol water conditioner for full or partial water changes to avoid damaging the bacteria.
I picked up a bottle of Biotopol water conditioner and did a 15 gallon water change this weekend. After I was done a friend read the packaging, which is only in German, and it says it's for treatment of sweet water. Did I mess up? I'm guessing it says sweetwater as opposed to treating salt water as it's supposed to take care of any lead, chlorine and other chemicals present in tap water, which I don't use anyway. I use Spring water which I've tested and found no NO3 or NO2 or Cl.
Should I not use that product anymore and would my aquarium be Ok for now and just take care of it next weekend with the next water change?
Nervously awaiting your advise...
Cheers
