IF YOU'RE USING THESE FOR HOME BREWING: If you're trying to remove chlorine/chloramine from your water IGNORE the directions. They call for using many more tablets than needed (perhaps the directions are for making a sterilizer?). I'm using one crushed tablet for 5-10 gallon batches and my water tests are coming out fine for chlorine. Using too many has the potential to restrict or prevent your yeast from fermenting.

The dosage rate is 1 tablet to 20 gallons but you must allow 9 min to work before pouring into your tank.
Potassium Campden seems to be way more popular with fish tank owners than Sodium Campden but none have disparaged either so it might not matter. I have chosen the potassium version as to stay with the majority.
As for how to use a Campden tablet.
I find it easiest to decide if the partial water change about to occur is going to be under10 gal or might it be more than 10 gallons. I then cut a pill in half (or not).
1/2 pills get dissolved in 10 ounces of water with whole pills dissolved into 20 oz of water.
The purpose of the above is Math is now easy, 1oz = 1 gallon.
When I do a water change I use multiple pails one for siphoning old water, and all the rest holding new water+campden.
I may fill & dump the siphon pail multiple times.
By the time I'm done siphoning it has been 9+ minutes and the Campden pails are dechlorinated and ready to be put into the fish tank.
as for Campden shelf-life. "everyone" agrees Campden in tablet form is shelf-stable for decades. I have found only anecdotal evidence that Campden remains shelf-stable once in solution form. Those that do store the solution use opaque / no-light plastic containers with air "removed" by squeezing sides. A packet of 100 tablets ought to last a fish hobbyist several years even if one were to discard the un-used solution. My opinion is a 1/2 pill costs about 4 cents whereas the cost of replacing fish is really expensive so it makes no sense to save the unused solution from a mixed 1/2 tablet. But the unused cut tablet is different, it can be saved for next time.
I crushed one pill per gallon of juice in a sanitized cup, added a splash of boiling water, got it dissolved, stirred it in to the juice, let it sit a bit over 24h, sloshing the bucket occasionally to keep things mixed. Ta da, clean juice.
As far as negative reviews about the effects of Potassium Bimetasulfite, you need to be careful how much you add, if you can taste it, you've added too much. I am using it for keeping bacteria fungus etc from growing in my Oak barrel while being stored with water. Flush out and rinse before using. One tablet for 5 gallons of water
