So, I was trying to do a fishless cycle, only the holding tank I have is a bit small for it's growing ACF inhabitants.
I got recommended to do a large water change then add dechlorinated water, using something that I have, Seachem Prime (which most people seem to think is the bees knees).
Seachem. Stability
Only the directions say WAIT A WEEK after dosing then add the frogs, where I was recommended to add Seachem Stability for two weeks while keeping my frogs in there.
It does look like an excellent product and I hope to get some feed back.
Also
Will the Prime during the water change interfere with the Stability?

Just a small bump, hoping someone notices this!

For anyone curious, this has been the third day of adding my frogs and Stability and the tank readings are pretty great! Of course, I will continue to use it, maybe a little longer than suggested to build up one hell of a biofilter.
They love the space and exploring their new home.

Things seem to be doing well. While my ammonia test gives me false positives because of Seachem Prime, it appears to be a very small amount. They are almost finished with their first week and I haven't seen any signs of stress.
Only maybe wanting some more hiding spaces in the big, open tank.
