1) Solution prepared following recommended guidelines by experts in discus forum 2) I always had aged water at temperature ready to do 50/60% water change after treatment and my routine was 30-50% water changes daily so no fear of Ammonia 3) i did not see any negative effects on tank at all after treatment, i've done this 2-3 times in 2 years without any issues BUT i prepared the solution VERY carefully following guidelines.

I believe that he mix pp with some water in a bottle to a ratio according to his tank volume, as long as the % of pp not more than 2ppm, then his filter have no problem handling this. Well, assuming he has an established filter.

How does he restarts the cicle when the fish is still in the tank. Ammonia will kill them in coulple of days.
When he saus 60ml og solution, how do you prepare that solution if pp comes in powder or little stones

that is not 100% correct. If you are using 2ppm or less, pp has minimum effect on bio filter. However, many would not take this risk and shut off main filtration during pp treatment :D, including me

If you run Potassium Permanaganate through your filter it will kill all your good bacteria. What he did with the PP running through his sump was kill all his good bacteria and basically restarting his cycle.
