who uses carib sea aragonite?

I just put a bag if this in my tank, and I was wondering, do I ever have to clean it? I heard you don't have to clean this since you can crash your tank

I use it and I never clean it. My tank has been running well for about 2 Years. it's bad to clean because it kills off all of the microbacteria.
