The water conditioner is safe. I'm still trying to find the other product.
Edit: Okay, the Top Fin product is a PetSmart exclusive. I couldn't find it on Amazon. Unless you own a hydrometer, I personally do not think you should use it. According to the instructions, when mixing you need to check the salinity to make sure it is correct before adding to the tank because you have to mix it with dechlorinated fresh water. You would be much better to get Instant Ocean - which thousands (actually more) fish hobbiests use for their saltwater aquariums. It has a great reputation. Also, you can buy a package that makes 10 gallons for the same price, if not less, as what you purchased (which only makes 9 gallons). That's my opinion.
Your product is probably safe if prepared correctly. The packaging is vague imo. I personally wouldn't use it - but that's me
