I've been using Prime for quite a while now and it seems to be working out for me. When I first started out with my tanks I was using "Jungle" water conditioner and it seemed to do it's job but I wanted something more "top of the line" if you will. I didn't make the switch because I thought the "Jungle" product was inferior but I just wanted the "best" for my fish. I started researching about the best water conditioner and everyone kept raving about "Prime" they would talk about how affordable it was and the benefits that came from using this product. It seemed like the best choice for me so I made the switch I did notice that the stuff is very strong and concentrated so it doesn't take much to treat your water. As far as dosing Prime you just need to follow the instructions on the back of the bottle. I'm usually careful when I dose with Prime because of it's potency so when I prepare my water in a 5 gallon bucket I usually dose 2 drops per gallon. The reason I do it this way is because I don't want to overdose on Prime I rather be safe than sorry. With that said when I first started dosing with Prime I would dose it straight into the bucket of water. Then I would siphon the water into my tank without letting the water age. I started noticing that every time after I did a water change my fish would start gulping for air at the surface. I started reading certain threads and some people stated that in some cases too much Prime can cause oxygen depletion. Seachem has stated that you can overdose Prime about 5x the recommended dosage and it still would be safe for fish. I personally wouldn't take the risk especially if you don't have proper aeration in your tank. I know most people will say that it doesn't matter if you let your water age or if you wait for the water conditioner to take effect (since it works instantly) and they might be right but in my situation it seems to make a difference. I let my water age for about 24 hours and I sometimes even dose the water before letting it age. I also give the water a little stir just to make sure everything is mixed up well I'm not sure if it helps but I do it regardless. I've noticed that after doing all of the above my fish don't gasp for air anymore and they don't seem to be bothered at all by weekly water changes. The only downside to my method would be that the agents that lock down ammonia, nitrites and nitrates to something less toxic wouldn't really be taking effect. These locking agents stop working after 24 hours or 48 hours depending on how much you dose. I'm not too worried about it though because I keep my tanks fairly clean and I methodically keep up with my water changes. Be warned that Prime does not get rid of ammonia, nitrites or nitrates for good it just converts it to something less toxic which then allows your biological filtration to clean it up for a short period of time. Like I stated before Prime only takes effect for a brief moment and once it stops working the toxins that were locked down are released back into your water. That's where regular water changes come into play having clean water and using Prime in conjunction will definitely work to your advantage. I would say that in laymen terms Prime is a good water dechlorinator that happens to come with a few extra's. Would I say it's worth making the switch? I wouldn't really be able to answer that question because there are a lot of great products out in the market that work similar if not the same as Prime. I would however say that from a personal stand point Prime is a great product and it works very well and if used correctly it can be very effective and affordable at the same time.

I have been keeping fish for 30+ years.Just about every major manufacture and boutique specialty company has a water conditioning and treatment product. I can't say I've tried them all, but close too it. Some products have at the least, minimal effectiveness while others can be potentially dangerous.An example would be Stress Coat which has binding sugar strands in the Aloe. This isn't a problem unless one of your fish has a small scratch or wound.The sugar feeds the bacteria which can lead to major infection and dire consequences.I've been using Amquel for years and it's a fine conditioner, excellent at removing chlorine, and Chloramines, but like all these products - they come with limitations.With one exception and that's Prime by Seachem.Prime doesn't just remove the chlorine and Chloramine it does much more:* Detoxifies any and all heavy metals in your tap water(you can call your water company directly for a list of them and PPM)* Neutralizes Ammonia* Neutralizes Nitrite* Neutralizes high Nitrate to non toxic levels* Removes toxic gases* Will not foam or change PH* Helps regenerate natural slime coatI bleach a lot of coral and Prime is indespensible in removing every trace of ammonia and caustic bleach - it also cuts down the rinsing cycle by hours which saves a great deal of water while ensuring the safety of the fish. In addition to the outstanding, patented formula of Prime - it couldn't be more economical to use. This 2 L bottle will treat a whopping 20,000 gallons of water. A tiny bit goes a long, long way.It should also be noted that in times of emergency the dose can be increased five times, Prime is harmless to fish.It's the only product of it's kind, and towers above any other water treatment on the market. If your an aquarium hobbyist be it novice or advanced - I would urge you to add a bottle of Prime to your arsenal of fish care products. Your finned friends will thank you for it.Not to mention this is the best deal on Prime I've ever seen this usually sells for around $100 and of you're ordering online expect to pay around $14.95 for shipping. This is priced at 60% off and if you have a Prime Membership (Amazons Prime not the Seachem Prime) you get two day free shipping to boot.

My low maintenance photosynthetic sponges were not thriving with the aquarium lights only, so I added this as a supplement after researching what elements can help my sponges. I am finishing up my first bottle and all the sponges have shown growth. In my research, some hobbyists don't have faith in these products, but this one for sure works for my sponges as they have grown more in the time I used this than without. NOTE: I don't have any other corals, only sponges and fish.

Seems to work fine. No issues. This is my 2nd time purchasing this product. 1st time from this seller.

Used to se tup my axolotl tank. Was easy to use and made water ready.

I buy this constantly for my fish tank and I've never had any problems with my fish. However, i do with it came with a little measurement dropper for smaller tanks.

Prime works as stated. It is a really good product. I use it for every water change.
