Marine Snow Does it get Gooey?

tranman · 01/29/2007, 12:54 PM

Hi,
I was following the instructions on the Marine Snow bottle to Refrigerate after opening.
Days later when I went to feed the tank, the Marine snow liquid was very very gooey and thick in texture.
Is this normal?
Anyone have experience w/ them?

Thanks,
Tranman

it will thicken as its cooled. as long as you dont smell a decaying odor youre alright.
ive used it for about a year or more and never had it go bad. i dose every two days.

I use the marine snow and it has always been thicker once refrigerated. Just make sure you shake it up each time before you use it.
