Is baking soda good to use in fish aquariums2007-11-24 23:37:13Answers:

Yes, but dissolve it in a cup of water and add it slowly to avoid problems. It can take a few hours for the stuff to circulate throughout.

i wouldn't use any chemicals. the residue may kill your fish. Even if it doesn't why risk it. just scrub scrub scrub and do 25% water changes.

It is good for cleaning but take the fish out first, rinse it thoroughly before you put them back into clean water

---

only if you plan on eating your fish later.

What is the purpose of using the baking soda? We use it to bring an acid-water tank back to neutral on the pH scale. If you need something to help clean the glass on your tank, be wary of using anything that is very abrasive. A utility razor is a great tool to remove the hard water stains that accumulate near the top of the tank. Use the razor carefully and avoid scraping off the clear silicone adhesive that holds the glass together. (We will not worry about your fingers!)

Good luck!

YES, Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) CAN be used depending on what type of fish you have. Baking soda should not be used with species which require low pH (acidic) water conditions.
