Bleach removal with Prime

[SteveMM62Reef]

I'm at work, double pay not double work. LOL

I had one of those Jobs, went to work Friday Morning, in the evening, got off for an Hour, had a place I could take a Shower, and Change. Picked up Dinner. Reported to job, and Slept on Standby, till Saturday Morning.

Any chance you figured out how much prime to use per 1ml of 5% bleach during that 1 hour break?

 

[Malcontent]

Assuming 5% bleach is 50 g/L Cl2, 1 mL of bleach would require 0.41 mL of Prime or 97 mg of Safe.

Thanks!!! Where did you find the info? I keep looking, and looking...

No, but if it was me, I’d put the Airline Rigid Tube in the Bottle, turn the air on, and evaporate the Clorox out of the water. That way the Air Tube is Sanitized too, with no extra chemicals.

I don't remember where I read it, but I use 1ml/Prime (or Sodium Thiosulphate solution) per 5m/ of bleach used.

I measured it myself.

Can we get an update on how its going and what your protocol is? Looking to start this myself and having issues finding info on sanitizing the water as well.

Did not work in my experiments.

Did not work in my experiments.

Did you find a method that did work or are you saying you gave up on the culturing all together?

I had better success with just freshly mixed SW than trying to sanitize the water.
