Dropped my filter in the tank. Semi Urgent

I just got back from the LFS and as i was prepping to rinse my filter ( in water from the tank) i dropped it in the tank leaving small debris in the water, meanwhile I am about to drop brand new fish in the tank that were sitting there temperature adjusting, Is all fine? I'm I freaked about nothing?

I added 1.5 ml of PRIME to the tank, Not sure what the heck happened but every one seems fine now, the new fish are in the tank, and the tests are all at normal status considering the biospira treatment( I added 6 fish, it was the only way to do it safely and allow the filter to have the bio load increase safely). I'll call the biospira folks on Monday as i have some other questions for them on the tests and when they return to normal read outs.

She might have been looking for oxygen. How warm is the water and is there aeration going?

Hi!


The filter thing dosn't sound bad. Just put it back in it's place and clean up the debris.

Molly was probably just looking for air.
