10 gallon tank

Pros: cost-effective
Cons: none

"I used this to start my 29 gallon and 10 gallon freshwater aquariums. I added fish during the first week that I set up my tanks and had ZERO fish deaths. Ammonia and nitrites were ZERO every day that I checked.

My 10 gallon aquarium houses 9 Corydoras habrosus (and one male Betta), which are rumored to be very sensitive to water quality (ammonia and nitrites especially). I used SeaChem Stability for 1 day before I added my fish and they are very active and healthy 3 weeks later. (I do weekly 35% water changes which is also beneficial to water quality and their health.)

I used more than the recommended dosage (1 capful every day for about 1-2 weeks), mainly because it was easiest to measure 1 capful than a smaller amount. This did not seem to bother the fish in any way.

This product is cost-effective because it will prevent fish deaths due to a new cycling tank syndrome.

Who wants to wait more than a month for their tank to cycle before adding fish to a new tank? No one. Use SeaChem Stability so you don't have to wait *and* fish don't have to suffer due to our impatience. :)"

Amazing Product, January 3, 2009
by Petaholic from Ann Arbor, MI

Pros: works!, easy to use, cannot use too much, reasonably priced, fish do not suffer

"I was terrified to cycle a tank with fish in it and did not think this would really work. I have a 10 gallon tank and started with 2 neon tetras. I used a capful everyday for a week and a week later added 1 Betta to my tank. A few days after that I added 3 guppies. A week after that added 2 albino cory fish and a frog. I added a capful every time I added fish (may have been overkill but I did not want them to suffer).

I have monitored my water the whole time and have not had any ammonia or nitrates in the danger zone. My water has been perfect during this first month of my aquarium. You would expect to see something with the biological load in my tank but the Stability has really help set up the necessary bacteria."

by crazyanimallady from Florida

"I like to use this anytime I change out 50% of my water or more. I also use this anytime I have to set up my hospital tank. Therefore, I only have to set up my hospital tank when I actually need it. I never have cloudy water or ammonia spikes when I am using it."

Great product to always have on hand..., August 24, 2007
by PoohBear from California

"I run three large tanks, 40, 60, and 90 gallons. I have used this product to kick start a friend's tank that had been running with no fish for several months. She was able to add a good sized peacock cichlid to her tank with no cycling issues.
This is a good product to always have on hand in case of emergency. I don't use this product with regular water changes, as it's not necessary once your biofilter is well established.
I also use this product to help kick start quarantine tanks, along with a piece of filter floss out of an already running tank."

Nice product., July 20, 2007
by fishlover1 from North Carolina

"This is a good product, it starts out saying when you are just beginning your tank (the cycling process). To add a capful a day (depends on gallons) for 7 days, and what is great is that it also says you "may" add fish at any time during this process. I did and my fish to this day seem to be fine, I also add this sometimes during water changes. :]"
