Yikes, just do a waterchange.

Likely putting a fish that eats and poops that much is just giving your tank a little cycle. Keep an eye on it and for gosh sakes don't put that septic stuff near your tank :eek:

This stuff would be bacteria for Freshwater though if it's meant for your septic, putting it into Saltwater would just kill it all off and exasperate your ammonia problem.

absolutely!!

Letting the tank rebalance itself on its own is the best course of action. If you really DO need to reinfuse bacteria then use a product intended for use on aquariums: Cycle, or one of the probiotic products (Zeovit has bacterial based additives including some you can use to cycle a tank). Don't let a $12 mistake be a show stopper.

Already did a 50g change and am adding a 55g refugium tonight so the water should be fine. If not I will change more water... this fish is a pig.

Thats what I thought, but I wanted to make sure. I know I read on some forum that people cycled their tanks with the same bacteria. I never tried it myself and cannot find those posts now. I know in some of my reading over the past year they said the bacteria for salt or fresh was the same stuff. This is why I come and ask the pros...:smile:
