Find a productProduct description
This pack suits aquarium keepers who run several separate liquid products for nitrification, water clarity and substrate cleaning and want to reduce that number. Each of the 20 capsules contains a concentrated powder dosed at one capsule per 60 L of aquarium water.
Why it matters
- Dormant bacteria: the powder contains a large quantity of nitrifying and other beneficial bacteria in a dormant form, which become active once added to the water.
- Organic carbon as a food source: the carbon in the powder feeds the bacteria, which use it to break down phosphates, nitrogen compounds (ammonia, nitrites, nitrates) and other organic and inorganic pollutants.
- Heavy metal reduction: the carbon component reduces heavy metals and other harmful substances that may come from liquids added to the tank or from low-quality tap water.
- Fewer bottles: one pack replaces a nitrifying bacteria liquid, an NO2/NH3/NH4 reducer, a substrate-cleaning bacteria liquid, an organic waste reducer and a heavy metal carbon product.

Dosing: open the capsule over the aquarium and pour the powder out. Do not add the whole capsule to the water, as it will not dissolve. Pour the powder where water movement is strongest. If you have water quality problems or a shortage of bacteria, use at most 1 capsule every 3 days. Otherwise, 1 capsule per week is sufficient. An air pump improves the action of the substrate-cleaning bacteria, though it is not required.
What it works with
The product is intended for aquarium water and dosed by tank volume, so the capsule count should be matched to the water volume in the tank. Its nitrifying and organic waste functions are relevant to any aquarium where ammonia, nitrites or nitrates need to be controlled. Operation is improved by water movement and, for the substrate-cleaning bacteria, by aeration.

Frequently asked questions
Yes, according to the product data, the powder replaces a nitrifying bacteria liquid, a liquid that lowers NO2, NH3 and NH4, a substrate-cleaning bacteria liquid, an organic pollutant-reducing bacteria liquid, and a carbon product for heavy metals. Each capsule is described as several preparations in one.
One capsule is intended for 60 litres of aquarium water.
Open the capsule over the aquarium so the powder falls into the water. Do not drop the whole capsule in, because it will not dissolve. Pour the powder where the water movement is strongest.
If you have water problems or a lack of bacteria, use at most one capsule every 3 days. In other cases, one capsule per week is enough.
According to the manufacturer's description, if a fish eats the powder nothing will happen to it. It may help clean its digestive tract and improve the bacterial flora in its intestines.
