I like amquel+ Plus.

It is cheaper than prime and In my opinion it works better.

Safe is my favorite. Its highly concentrated. Got 1kg of it from kensfish for 23.95. Treats 200,000 gallons. Smells really bad though. Sulfur content.

Kordon's AmQuel+ does wonders! I've seen this question pop up often, but I'm sticking to AmQuel+ until I'm done with the hobby.

Prime is foul smelling as well... I got some on my hand and the smell wouldn't go away! It smells like very strong sulfur. IMO AmQuel+ doesn't smell as bad, but it does have an odor. I think all of them have an odor though...

I think there's always gonna be a debate about this but it's all personal opinion till its tested side by side.

Dechlorinators use sodium thiosulfate to remove the choramine, hence the sulfer smell. The more concentrated the dechlorinator (like Prime), the stronger the smell. Amquel uses Sodium hydroxymethanesulfonate ... so there is still sulfer in there.

Ask Sunken, he's tried Prime and AmQuel+. He likes the latter better. I always started with AmQuel+ because of EK. Never had a problem with it.

Yup. They all stink!

Nah in talking about professionally test it. Before and after the 2 products. I think I posted one up where they tested all the dechlorinate and they said prime removed the most chemical out the water.

This wasn't a test, but they labeled what they claim to do side by side.
