Yea water change but u don't have to. I take it all the cyano is not gone. If so do another dose and u can double it. I have even done triple dose and no water changes before and no Ill effects. The problem is that when ur done with the treatment the akimmer will nuts for a while. But large wc will fix that. Also dose bac at night. The more the better that will help.

what will happen is you will get crystal clear water and no more cyano. i just did a treatment a couple weeks ago and those were my results before going lights out the following week. if you need more, i have extra since i was trickeried into buying the chemiclean that treats up to 17,937 gallons. lmao
