Review: Better than almost all mainstream alternatives - I have tried other bottled 'bacteria' from Seachem, Tetra, API and this one is superior in results. Compared to other alternatives on the market, I think it has cultures of the right bacteria (Nitrosomonas, Nitrospira and Nitrobacter) compared to other market alternatives that usually have heterotrophs or anaerobes. In my case, it dropped nitrites to near zero in under 30 hours. PROS: - Works under 24 hours in emergencies - No bloom/cloudy water CONS: - More expensive than others - Opened bottle needs to be put in your fridge
Review: My fish are thankful! - Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much, but this little bottle of bacteria wizardry saved me a ton of stress. Set up a new tank, tossed this in, and bam—ammonia and nitrites started dropping like they owed me money. I added a couple of tough little fish and kept an eye on the water parameters, and everything stayed surprisingly chill. It’s like the bacteria knew exactly what to do—no training required. Super easy to use: shake it up, dump it in, and feel like a responsible aquarium parent. I’ll definitely be grabbing another bottle for the next tank I “accidentally” set up.

## Features

- Safe aquarium start: Creates stable biological filtration from day one – shortens tank cycling and ensures safe fish introduction sooner.
- Natural water balance: Converts ammonia and nitrite biologically – ideal after water changes or filter cleaning – prevents toxic build-up.
- Reliable performance: Maintains healthy water conditions and supports beneficial bacteria growth in medium aquariums.
- Simple application: Pour directly into the tank – 10 ml per 100 l – suitable for freshwater, marine and shrimp setups
- ARKA quality: Premium biotechnology for safe aquarium care – trusted by professionals and aquascapers.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi, can this work to prevent fungus gnats and mosquitoes in soil and water? I know similar products can.**
A: I couldn't tell you I'm afraid. I only used it when I needed to accelerate the cycle for the aquarium...which it does if you use enough of it. If you are cycling an aqaurium if its 100 litres plus buy a big bottle as it will save you in the end

**Q: How much of this product would i put in a 350ltr tank ?**
A: I am not sure so I put 5 mls in a 50 litre tank Shane instructions are in German

**Q: Can be used in pond  with koi fish ?**
A: Theoretically yes, I use in an aquarium. Personally would check with Maidenhead Aquatics or ARKA for a definitive answer.
