When refilling your tank how do you add water conditioner?

I use Neutral Regulator from Seachem because it is both a dechlorinator that can break the chloramine bond and a ph control product designed to help hold ph at about 7.0 to 7.3. This being said, I add the powder directly to the aquarium over the period of time that I am adding water. I hope this helps you.

I add it straight into the tank in front of the siphon tube as it's pouring back in. Then it can push it around and spray it out me

I've read before that the water condition instantly disappates the chlorine in tap so personally I add water conditioner to the tank before adding water. It's seemed to work fine for me but typically keep hardier fish.

You need to make sure the tank has water up to between the lower water line and upper water line (using the fill cup). Then the liner cup you can put much more water into. I typically fill it up about halfway. If I fill it up and if it doesn't mist I just take a small amount of water out until it starts misting, then add my EOs.

Yes. This is to remove chlorine from the water, which is necessary before adding tap water to the tank. You can add as much salt as you want afterwards.

Nope, just pour water into the holding tank and plug it in. Bottled spring water is best and keeps the unit clean and fresh than tap water.

Yes, just turn off the knob for the water flow from the tank and remove stopper to clean out bowl. Then open again to refill.

I believe the instructions say to use tap water and empty the tank when you finish. I always used distilled water anyway.

You can or you can not. My husband and I let it soak in the existing tank water for a bit before putting it in. This allows some of the good bacteria from the water to mix into the filter before hand.

I don't think there's a way to do it. You would need to fill the unit with water, but it is a sealed unit with no visible way to add more water.

Add it at the beginning. Get a testing kit to make sure water is safe before adding fish. You can cycle a tank with fish food instead of sacrificing fish. If you can get some media (sponge's, etc. ) from a friends filter to put in your filter it will hasten the process as these will have good bacteria already on them. If you do this it should be ready in a couple weeks. If you do this it is not necessary to wait months on end. Add the live plants right away also as the plants will help the process. Good luck!

You add it at the start, leave it for a week or two, water change add more as it instructs and you can add your fish. You still condition the water throughout this process. You can continue adding the safestart in additional water changes.

I do not use it to refill because I use reverse osmosis water and the faucets are different. The research I did on this matter said that you just add the de- chlorinating chemicals to the tank. I would imagine you would do it before you started adding the water. I would research which chemicals. I see on the other responses they give you the name of the chemicals they use. I hope this helps. It is a great system to use.

Use a thermometer under the stream of water from your faucet to gauge what the temp is and adjust the faucet until it is the temp of your tank water. Before you refill the tank make sure to treat the size of your tank first with something like Prime, no matter now much water you are replacing.

Life the water tank up and off the base unit with the built-in type top handle. On the bottom of the water tank, the large knob on the bottom, unscrews for water filling. Fill to top with tap water and screw the plug back into bottom of tank. Be careful when putting the tank back onto the base unit as it has to align correctly. Hope this answers your question.To start unit, turn knob 1/4 turn clockwise and the unit turns on with green light. The 1/4 turn will allow the mist to use for approx. 8 hrs. Turn off counter-clockwise when red light is on as tank will be empty. Make sure you unplug unit from power outlet before and after using unit.

I've been adding about five to ten drops into the tank every refill. I've been doing this for three months. Just make sure you clean the tank and base at least once a week. Use vinegar and warm water to clean both. By the way, I've only needed to use five drops of young living essential oils since these oils are highly potent.

Take out the small reservoir and the unit where it's plugged (just pull it out, there is a kind of a electrical outlet when it's removed). Remove any trace of water from the unit. Replug the unit, fill the reservoir and plug it.

No, you do not add water. The unit collects water over time that you must drain from time to time.

As I understand the directions, you are to add one cap full each time your refill the water reservoir. It helps eliminates odors and helps keep the humidifier free of fungus and mildew.
