Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before adding eSHa 2000, ensure your aquarium filtration is running properly. It is recommended to remove chemical filter media, such as activated carbon, as these can absorb the medication from the water column, rendering the treatment ineffective. Always calculate the exact volume of your tank to ensure the correct dosage of the 20ml solution is administered. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to maintain the potency of the active ingredients. When using in a quarantine tank, continue regular monitoring of water quality to ensure the environment remains conducive to healing.
