I just read about a tank crash in the states when the families 6 yr old daughter wanted the fish to enjoy bubbles and poured about 200 millilitres of dish soap into their 150 gallon aquarium and although the parents reacted quickly the tank ended up crashing hard.

It’s something we rarely think about when dealing with children or adults unfamiliar with aquarium setups that many chemicals are bad for the home aquarium.
