Default This is an embarassing mistake: C02 activator!!

I just bought this package, WITHOUT THE CANISTER!!
There is no explaination in how to apply, so I rip the activator package, pour all content to my 10 gallon planted aquarium !! D: NOOOO!!!!!
But it's too late, anyone ever use this product? Is it going to dissolve in water? What is gonna happen to my fishes?
There also c02 stabilizer package, should I use it too? I worry if my fish inhale too much co2
Right now the particle just make my aquarium messy, like snowflake!
it's my fault when I buy that without asking how to apply but really, it just come in package without the canister!! I dont see any other C02 equipment in that store! I pissed! It's very misleading!

Please.. WHat should I do now?
Thank you

I notice that my fishes (glolight,neon,guppy and hi fin blackskirt) are exciting with the snowflake and they might eat it or just playing blows , hard to tell.

Hi Joswan,

The ingredients are basically sugar and yeast. I would do a 50% water change tonight (watch temp and use declor) and another tomorrow morning. If the water starts to turn milky cloudy you may have to do more than just two.

** Yes, it dissolves slowly! And the water turns cloudly though
