Absolutly nothing lol I was advised to use it to clean the glass before a reseal
Because it evaporates quickly and leaves no residue but it was useless ended up just razorblading well and cleaning up with a vacuum and hotwater That was the tank that cracked

Ya waiting is hard lol first addition is going to be a pistol shrimp/goby pair after a small cuc anyway thinking a couple snails and a pom pom crab and a small urchin later on coral won't be going in for a while minus a softy thinking gsp I love the stuff but sps won't be goingin till I get my reactor and ato set up want the tank as stable as possible to maximize my chances of keeping them

Well perams went well amm-0.0 nitrite-0.1 and ph was low at 7.9 I figured it would be a quick cycle with rocks sand and half the water being cycled previously hope ph gets up soon I'll test again next week sometime before adding the cuc ( hopefully next weekend) will see how it goes
