Dors it turn the water cloudy? New tank, no fish, added this and all cloudy next day

No it shouldn't turn the water cloudy at all. As long as you measure out the correct solution. If it's a new tank and you have an air pump it could be needs time to filter the water. It should clear up . But stress coat wont make the water cloudy at all

Will this make using tap water in a 46 liter Fluval Edge marine set up ok?

Yes, 16oz treats 946 gallons of tap water for fresh or marine aquariums

I ordered this and is it meant to come with a pump to get it out of the bottle?

I punch a small hole to pour it from and another to let the air in so it doesn't glut. No no pump just tip it. I also keep a small old bottle to top up and use from this .

Can you use this product while also using purigen at the same time?

Sorry dont know what purigen is, unless it is the same as Aqua Safe, which makes tap water safe for aquariums, then if it is I do use them both.

Great for houseplants too!

I have been adding this to my watering can every time I water my house plants for a few months now and I have noticed that my sulky peace lily has fewer and fewer brown and yellow edges to it’s leaves. I have had this plant for years and the new growth is lush and green. I have noticed that new plants watered with this in the water have not had any discoloured leaves, so as far as I am concerned it is working well for my purposes.

Excellent for houseplants

Excellent product. I live in a hard water area and my houseplants have never thrived until I started using this product. Just a few drops in the watering can, and it transforms the water into soft water. Can also be added with liquid plant food at the same time. Very economical, as you only need a tiny amount!
