    So while setting up my new 2 little fishies phosban reactor 150, i forgot to bleed out the first water, so i blew it into the tank when i reconnected it. how bad is this and what should i do?? my 6 line waresse was a little goofy at the time, now he seems better... did i just put a lot of iron in my tank?

    Thanks

    It would depend on the impact it made to your Salinity. Simply measure you SG and if it dropped a lot adjust it back to normal levels
