How long until the water clears?

[AydenLincoln]

I did a water change and replaced my carbon. How long until the water clears and I can add the fish back in? (After an overdose of NOPOX)

what do you mean? did you take your fish out to in order to do a water change?

Holy cow... what did you do to create all that dust?

Depends on how much flow and mechanical filtration you have. Could be a few hours to possibly overnight... Might still have a bit of cloudiness to it, but it will be ok.

I overdosed NOPOX. Fish are in my lobster tank. I lost my shrimp and urchin.

She overdosed NoPox and it created a bacterial bloom.

I overdosed NOPOX! I lost my shrimp and urchin. Fish and starfish are in an isolation box with an air stone in the lobster tank.

How is the starfish behaving?

Still alive. Not moving probably shocked like the rest of the fish.

Did you have time to acclimate them at all?

No but the tank runs the same salinity and temperature.

Dang! sorry to hear that

He’s doing well! And fish are doing better. He’s eating right now and moving around.

Ramp the skimmer up.
Add air-stone if possible (overdose can kill fish due to oxygen depletion).
Dose 2mL H2O2 (food grade)

I moved everyone. And am running a UV sterilizer and skimming more.
