What effect will surgical spirits have on a marine tank?
Urgent help needed Wrongly dose surgical spirits instead of hydrogen peroxide
- Thread starter Express Reef
- Start date
not that i know what they would do, but just a precautionary I'd do as big of a water change as possible and add some carbon, hope that helps for now, but that would be the first thing i would do, instead of waiting for an answer before it's too late.
Surgical spirits the one from Dischem... At work so can only do a water change after work :-( lucky I already run carbon
@459b do you think this will have the same affect as carbon dosing?

Wanted to dose 10ml due to a power cut, however started to inject then I notice the water changing color to milky white so stopped as I know peroxide does not do that, think about 5-6 ml was dosed. System is +- 200 liters.
Got confirmation via whats app photo tank is looking 100% and everything is alive, will do test and see the results.
Update, no ill effect on the tank, just wiped out all nutrients PO4 and no3 zero
hmmm seems like a new dosing method to decrease PO4 and N03 
I agree Dallas That was a joke. Please guys ignore my reply.
