I agree, chemi-clean is awesome stuff but some caution should be used. It is important to do a water change after it has done it's job. It is also very important not to use carbon or ion exchange resins like chemi-pure at the same time as it will rapidly remove the chemi-clean before it has a chance to work. The stuff is expenisive but it sure works well!
