Hopefully one last question: How do you know if you have dosed enough? How do you know that they are dying? They just sit there right now, and I see no movement.
Thanks!
You will know when the are dying, because you will see them twitch and then float freely in the water. As the for the amount to use, follow the instructions on the box first. You might get lucky. I didn't. I had to use half of the bottle witch is enough for 450 gallons in my 55 gallon tank to get them all. The 5 most important things to remember are 1) get as many out of the tank and between the rocks as possible Before treating the tank to keep the toxin level as low as possible. 2) use plenty of FWE. 3) have an enormous amount of current rushing through the tank while you are treating it. 4) be ready with a ton of GAC. 5) Have plenty of fresh salt water on hand like Steve said, just in case.
HTH and Good Luck!
