Re: Ammonia-neutralizing Products

I am not aware of any documented tests that have been
done on Amquel to support the idea that it kills small
aquatic life.  I think that some controlled tests
should be done.  It would be interesting to know if
using the exact recommended amount kills aquatic life,
what happens when 1/2 the recommended dose is used,
and what happens when the "if one will do it, two will
do it better" style of administration is applied.  I
have read on this list where some folks think it's
harmful but maybe some additional testing might be
worthwhile.  I did some frozen daphnia testing
recently; anyone interested in picking up the ball on
this one?
