When can I add my fishies back in?

[AydenLincoln]

My tank has recovered I believe! Look how low everything got. The water has cleared and my levels are in check now. Is it safe to add the fishies back in? After another water change and continuously running extra aeration. This was after a NOPOX overdose.

How much nopox did you dose? I am not really sure about the side effects of nopox but I did not think it had an effect on salinity and temp unless you REALLY overdosed.

I really did overdose. I lost my urchin and shrimp. I did some big water changes and ran a UV sterilizer and air pump. Fish are back home. 5-10ml in a 20 gallon worn my skimmer off. Even if I dosed the right amount my skimmer was off and I forgot about it so it still would’ve happened.

I'm not sure that 1-2 ml would have crashed your tank with skimmer off if you had adequate water flow. I asked about your parameters in your other thread

It was double to triple that actually. I normally dose 1-2ml.

Yes, my point is that even without your skimmer, I don't think 1 or 2 ml would have had this affect with proper flow. You said due to skimmer off it would have. I would stop nopox, list your parameters and get some feedback before you have another disaster. We are all here to help but can't help without info
