Find a productProduct description
This product suits keepers of tropical aquariums who want a single concentrated additive for biological water care instead of several separate liquids. Each capsule contains a powder culture that is opened and poured into the tank, which reduces the number of bottles to store and track.
Why it matters
- Multi-strain culture: the powder is described as a nutrient concentrate for many bacterial strains, not only nitrifying bacteria, aimed at matching the biological activity of tropical river water.
- Nitrogen compounds: the bacteria are stated to lower NO2, NH3 and NH4 levels in the water.
- Organic carbon: the carbon supplied with the powder feeds the useful bacteria, which break down phosphates, nitrogen compounds and other organic and inorganic contaminants.
- Heavy metals: the carbon component is stated to reduce heavy metals and other harmful substances from added liquids and lower-quality tap water.

What it works with
The product is intended for tropical aquariums up to the 60 l volume stated per capsule, and it is dosed by pouring the powder over the area with the strongest water movement, not by adding the whole capsule. For problem water or a lack of bacteria, the maximum is one capsule every 3 days; otherwise one capsule per week is recommended. An air pump is described as improving the action of the cleaning bacteria, though it is not required.

Frequently asked questions
One capsule is dosed for 60 liters of aquarium water, so a 120-liter tank would need two capsules per dose. The pack contains 20 capsules.
Open the capsule over the tank and pour the powder in. Do not drop the whole capsule into the water, because it will not dissolve.
Pour it where the water movement is strongest. An air pump can also help the cleaning bacteria work better, though it is not required.
If you have water problems or lack of bacteria, use up to one capsule every 3 days. Otherwise, one capsule per week is enough.
According to the manufacturer, if a fish eats the powder, nothing will happen to it, and it may improve the fish's intestinal bacteria. The product is said to reduce NO2, NH3 and NH4 and to clear the water of organic residues.
