    Just did a dose of [FONT=&quot]ULTRALIFE RED SLIME REMOVER - Instructions say to add airstone before use, and during. But they don't say how long to run the air stone afterwards.

    Anyone have this information?

    Don't.
    Just point a PH at the surface and that should work well.

    I guess I'm dense today. Are you saying not to run an air stone? I assume PH is power head which it already have two which rotate to the surface about every 10 seconds.

    Yes, don't run the air stone. I never did and have never had a problem.
    You are correct about the powerheads and it sounds like you should be fine.
