Depending on the size of the tank try 5grains first.
They are tropical fish your referring to, it is an anteseptic, too much can harm them.

The water should have a slight pink tinge, when the aereator has circulated the water, it will fade after a few days. Don't overdo it, I used to use it for my Blue Acara's, I also used a stronger mixture in a watering can in the garden, pour it on and all the worms come to the surface, they don't like it, it burns, then I washed them and fed them to the Blueys.
