"And it did."

Dealing with biological cloudiness in my tank for some time. But the septic tank bacteria did nothing. The reviews on people fish dying really spooked me. The aquasafe works instantly upon mixing with tap water. This will give you how many drops is required per gallon. My tap water is very heavy and this water conditioner does it's magic. I read the reviews, and decided to give this a try.

Brightwell Aquatics BAC1L Final Thoughts

"I love Seachem."

I've used every product on the market and this is the most AMAZING MUST HAVE PRODUCT! 4-5 squirts in a sink of water, soak my suit 10 min, wring out and hang to dry. In the last two months I have seen this product work its gold. I do not use this as a product to treat my tap water. The reviews on people fish dying really spooked me. I have two goldfish and a Corydoras catfish. It is much safer to simply to add 3 drops per gallon.

Brightwell Aquatics POE500 First Impressions

"Did a tank cycle."

I decided to pick it up once again and struggled mightily my first few months. I have been battling cloudy water in our small aquarium for two months. Fish are aerobic organisms that are susceptible to ROS. I'm amazed, I'm really amazed that this product worked so well. However, be aware that the dosage starts at 20 gallons. You need to buy an eye dropper for this. I was sort of nervous buy this product and trying it out.

Brightwell Aquatics POE500 Final Thoughts

"I highly recommend it."

However, be aware that the dosage starts at 20 gallons. I did water changes, but it didn't help. Use a water conditioner that does not remove ammonia. 4-5 squirts in a sink of water, soak my suit 10 min, wring out and hang to dry. Tim's cultures were obviously very alive and active. I'm interested to see how long it works. Sure enough they are back to their healthy coloration and didn't end up dying on me.

"Give it a shot."

I could see it working immediately which was pretty wild. Boy, I thought I was having trouble with my filter. 1st day, I put product in tank with Fluval Biological Cleaner for Aquariums also. He started making bubble nests again which ne never did when it was super cloudy. I read the instructions, measured out the product, and added it to the tank. I use mine for my beta fish in a 2 gallon tank and need less than a half a cap full. It has been 4 days and our beta is loving the clearer water.

Brightwell Aquatics BACSTARTXLM2L Final Thoughts

"I love this stuff!"

I do not use this as a product to treat my tap water. It's water change day so I did this step first then started cleaning the tank. This is only temporary till I get a spare dropper. I'm hoping this one works out if not I'm sticking to the one I used before. Beats the heck out of those expensive suit cleaners. I read the reviews, and decided to give this a try. Use a water conditioner that does not remove ammonia.

"Good, or bad."

When they disinfect a repair site, they are normally only using chlorine. This is my absolute favorite conditioner I have used for all my aquatic creatures. I decant this to a small 5 oz squeeze bottle and leave the rest in the fridge. I'll continue to use this product, especially after a good tank cleaning. The aquasafe water conditioner is a fantastic de-chlorinator. Do not gravel vac or disturb the substrate. The bottle will last me years as it is huge!

"Keep testing the ammonia."

I know you are going to worry about your fish DON'T they are fine. Fish are aerobic organisms that are susceptible to ROS. I love it when a product does what its supposed to. It just hasn't helped with the tint. My water is crystal clear again, and it smells like a healthy fish tank again. I've used it for years with great results. Dunkin, my Betta doesn't seem to stress out over my adding this.

"If you are not using Dr."

This is definitely worth trying if you have cloudy water. UV light works on it but not much else. Tim's cultures were obviously very alive and active. Way to go Fluval keep up the good WORK! I recieved it today at 3pm and applied it around 4pm. Use a water conditioner that does not remove ammonia. But the septic tank bacteria did nothing.
