How many times do you add this to your tank just once or like once every few days?

4 years ago
We would recommend to add when performing maintenance to the aquarium or when it is becoming established. It will not be harmful if used more frequently (1-2 times a week).

Is Quick Start the same as Stress Zyme? How are they different? Are they safe to use in Bettas tanks? Can I use with Stress Coat Plus? Are API products compatible with other brands or must I use them with API products only?

4 years ago
Quick Start is not same as Stress Zyme. Different usage and benifits. Can be use in betta tanks with right dosage. Both best to use with Stress Coat. Not familiar on API products' compatibility with other brand products.

I just started a 20 gallon tank. I already have fish in it. I bought a mini 1OZ bottle of this to try. On my next water change is this safe to add while fish are in it?

Yes, it is safe. Just follow recommended dosage. I use it each time I do water change and my fish is doing fine.

If you put to much in a tank will it kill the fish?

I recently set my tank back up & now the aquarium water has been cloudy for about 3-4 weeks

Do you have sand substrate? If so you might not have rinsed it enough and might need a water clarifier so that your filter can take it out. It could also be bacterial bloom which is the beginning phase of the nitrogen cycle in new tanks

I accidently used quick start in my aquarium that expired in may 2019. The lid was always kept on the bottle and it was kept in a dark area at room temperature. Was it efficient in my tank or do I need to add more?

4 years ago
You would need to buy a new bottle, since all the beneficial bacteria included in the liquid would be die when it expires.
