Not sure why one would even need this product? And why would anyone be using in SW? I thought it was a FW only product, guess I was wrong.

After TTMing several fish(15 to 20 over the course of the years), I have yet to see an ammonia buildup to dangerous levels in 72 hours or less.

If you are seeing a dangerous level buildup, consider larger tanks, smaller specimens, or doing a few extra transfers with each transfer being only 24 or 48 hours.

FWI I read the entire thread, OP sounded like a kid in the OP, and I totally got Bertoni's meaning to "Turbo". People are so touchy these days, age, sex, and/or expertise doesn't always convey very well in written form.
