I've been selling Aquaripure denitrators for 5 years and I doubt I'd be in business if I kept killing everybodys fish. My reef tank hasn't lost a single fish in 2 years and my FW tank is doing great as well.

In rural areas do you know how they make well water high in H2S drinkable??? They stir it! That's it, they stir it to aerate it. Very quickly ALL of the H2S is replaced with CO2 and O2. It does NOT stay in the water. It is NOT what killed your fish. I suspect an overcrowded tank with incompatible species and other poor fish keeping did that.

That denitrator is perhaps most useful for a marine reef aquarium. I
have to add nitrate to my freshwater aquariums for plant growth.

Also, denitrators are supposed to involve anaerobic bacteria that bring
their own issues.

Been there, tried that. Ever seen a Nitrex box? I tried one when I was
a beginner with a bad test kit and though I had high nitrate. Half the
fish in my tank caught diseases and died before I figured out that the
Nitrex box was H2S poisoning them.
