If it's a debate, how can there be a right answer.

But the question says ANY imbalance. There is a possibility it does solve some imbalances but not all.

1) false (if the question means any and all)

2) if I understand correctly, 2 part adds salt without the rest of the "stuff" in the salt bucket. Adding only 2 part will reduce the ratio of the "stuff" in your tank, creating an imbalance. Doing a 10% water change will only improve the imbalance 10%.

Yeah we have a winner!

PM me your address

2 part and 3 part add sodium chloride to the system (just as balling does) however when you do a water change you only remove that % of the imbalance created.

But if you just started 2 part and the imbalance in substance A went out a very tiny amount. Doing a 10% water change could add just enough to get substance A back into balance.

But you are guessing. the clue is in the question asked "could"

Your question is a good one though

So there you go. The answer is a definite maybe. While no and yes are obviously wrong.
