Oh my god [Emergency]

[twig]

Yeah so my sister called me up late at night and shes all like Oh my god and i'm like Oh my god! and she's like "I was testing my ammonia levels when I dropped one of the vials into the water" and I was like "what were you doing hovering it over the water" and she was like "Well, I was trying to see it" ...

So yeah,
she dropped the little test tube full of ammonia reagent into her fish tank >>;

Is she screwed?

bottle #2 contains sodium hydroxide and sodium hypchlorite
causes severe burns
contack with acids liberates toxic gas
toxic by inhalation, in contack with skin and if swallowed
Danger of cumulative effects
Keep locked up and out of reach of children
keep away from food drink and animal feeding stuffs
In case of contact with eyes, rinse imeadeatly with plenty of water(atleast 15 minutes) and seek medical advise immediately
After contact with skin, wash imediately with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing
wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection
In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately(show label where possible)
Do not mix with acidice materials

I'm guessing the cure is lots and lots of water changes, as said above, but I highly doubt the fish will get out of this without damage being done.

That's similar to what happened to my tank full of new african babies--carelessly left my wipe up sponge on the back of the canopy, it fell in, and over night they were all dead!!! And there wasn't alot of chemical on it--but info on the hydrocholoric acid (nitrate test) did include a neutralizing agent, and also stated that it takes minute amounts to destroy aquatic life. I hope your sister's fish make it unscathed. Does she live, like, y'know, in Calli?

 

[twig]

No ...
but I explained things just like she explained it to me ... lol
She sounded really tired and nervous.

Yeah,
Unfortunately all her fish were belly up this morning :/

None of them made it.
