Question about bubbles and Prime.

[Biohazards]

Ok, So I finally got time too set up my 75 Gallon tank tonight. I've got two quick, likely laughable question I want to clear up...

1) I'm I to understand that I just need 8ml of prime to treat my entire tank, and all water changes (using the Python)? Seems hysterical, that much could treat all that...

2) After my filter primed (Aqauclear 110, It's a hang on back kind) I noticed that some bubbles where appearing. Some of them were sticking to the heater and glass etc.(there rather tiny) I was curious if this is normal (there is no decor or fish in the tank yet, just a heater and eco-complete) Both of my filters do it.

Thanks, once again for your time. I'd be so screwed without this site...

Those will go away in a day or two, it doesn't have any thing to do with prime. I add 2 cap fulls {5ml each} on our 80.......

:iagree:

I add 1 capful of Prime for each 50% change on my 75.

if your adding to the tank and not pre treating the water you should treat for the whole water column. so yes 1ml = 10 gal... so 8ml should treat it. like Weeser i add a little more its cheap for peace of mind.

bubbles go away with time no worries there.
