SafeStart users...advice please!

[BettaKing]

Ok so my tank has been cycling with SafeStart for about a week and a half. I'm testing my water today. Would it be ok to put the fish in if the readings were good? Jus' wondering. If not that's ok. Thx!

P.S Please respond ONLY if you have have had personal experience with this product. Thx

Tetra safestart is designed to be used with fish.

You can put fish in immediately after dosing, that's what it's designed for.

[BettaKing]

So it would be ok?

Yes but this one actually works.

My lfs recomended it to me but I thought it was the same as cycle so I told them no cause cycle don't work so what does it do give you an "insta cycle"?

[Scottishnewbie]

Is it just as good as cycling?

[eco23]

I would add that Safestart results are sometimes inconsistent and not a guarantee of an instantly cycled tank. I would personally recommend keeping a close eye on water parameters and treating it as a fish-in cycle until the tank probes stable.

[barterking85]

Yeah I am kinda skeptical of it cause if it docent cycle your tank how does it benefit ?

[BettaKing]

Well it worked! ph was little high, but not anything serious. Still gonna keep an eye on it though.
