What else do you have in your tank? I think it's a GREAT idea to use an airstone during and following the treatment but it will increase Salt Creep so keep this in mind.

I would highly recommend using air stone. Be very careful using that stuff. Follow the directions. The water change after is very important. I almost lost everything because I didn't start the water change soon enough. All of my fish were very stressed.
Since then I was able to get water parameters in check and haven't needed to use it again.
Good luck.

I also used Chemiclean with an airstone. HIGHLY recommended. And +1 to what david42 said about the follow up water change. Be EXACT with the amounts recommended for your volume of water. My fish were fine throughout the experience - didn't see any weird behavior, lack of eating, etc. It worked!
