    I love Seachem's Prime. It has saved my fish more than once after I was foolish enough to let someone take care of them for the weekend, and it's reasonably priced and highly concentrated. It does everything I need it to do. I recommend it to all of my customers. Seriously, at this point, they owe me some serious gratitude. Or at least a free coffee or something.
    The python hose rocks out loud, too. Without it I would have quit months and months ago.

    No, I usually use Aquasafe.... all it does though is remove Chlorine and Chloramines. It does not remove ammonia though.

    I have my plants to remove those nasties :cool:

    Oh okay. For some reason I had it in my head you used RO water for your Discus tanks.

    I also ue Prime, and the big reason is that you only need a small amount, and if you have larger tanks, it cannot be beat for the money.

    I use Prime and would never use any other product other than fresh amazon water, if they sold such a thing. Stinks tho.

    Stop sniffing it. :p :) But yeah, it does have a pretty gross smell. Regular Prime seems to smell like sulfur. I've recently switched to Pond Prime and it has a totally different smell, still not a good one, but it is different.

    I've used several that I've liked but many of them have stress coat or aloe added. If you want a good conditioner without the junk added and it's concentrated, Primes the way to go. It's a money saver when you have several tanks because it takes much less. You're only buying the conditioner and not those additives.

    Yes, Steve. It does stink! :p
