    She is too busy proofreading on other forums to waste time on here using the right words.

    I didn't lose her! At least not yet. She's just hanging out in a bottom back corner, sort of on the sand. Going to get some prime tomorrow and do a 25g WC. I'll keep posted

    Prime detoxifies ammonia & nitrites. Follow the instructions, but basically you will want to keep dosing per the instructions until ammonia and nitrites are 0.

    I wouldn't dose anything until you have tested the water.
