Water changes is the only thing that will drastically lower trates, and I might be wrong, but I think Amquel only takes out ammonia?!?! Plus, would you rather dump a chemical in your tank, or do something just as easy, that will take out a LOT more. Do not add ANY livestock until your trates are zero.

i know im gonna do a water change for trates but amquel+ gets rid of ammonia trites and trates... what else gets rid of trites?

Nothing gets rid of trites. Only trates. You have to wait for the trites to convert to trates before it will do any good to do a water change. But do one today anyway!! Because you already have a ton of trates!

It doesnt get rid of it, it locks it up so the filter can get it. Supposedly anyway. I have never found it to work for me, but IDK.

Still, it is NOT the best way to do it. Water changes will work a THOUSAND times better!

Oh, but it DOESNT get rid of it!! The FILTER does! The bottle may claim that but how can a chemical just suck it up. What it does is it locks that stuff up in a way so that the filter can suck it up. PLEASE JUST GET A COUPLE OF CLEAN 5-GALLON BUCKETS AND DO A WATER CHANGE!!!
