- Shake product well before using. Mix appropriate volume of MicrōBacter7 (see below) with 250-ml (~8 fl. oz.) of aquarium water in a clean container prior to addition to aquarium. If using a pipette to dispense MicrōBacter7 below water level of container or aquarium, be sure to thoroughly clean pipette with fresh water prior to placing tube back into MicrōBacter7 bottle; failure to do so will contaminate the product. Best results may be obtained by adding mixture to external biological filtration system (if applicable). Do not add to pump intake port(s). For best results, use within 1-year of purchase date. Grossly overdosing MicrōBacter7 will not significantly increase the effectiveness of the product, nor the rate at which it enacts changes in aquaria. The following recommendations are based upon extensive testing and will produce the best results in most aquaria. Medium- to High-nutrient Systems, or to seed Biological Filtration in new aquaria: To effectively decrease the concentration of available nutrients and waste material in all marine and freshwater aquaria, add 5 ml (1 capful) per 25 US-gallons (94.6 L) [≈4 drops per gallon (3.8 L)] of aquarium water daily for the first two weeks of use; the impact that MicrōBacter7 has on an aquarium is most evident within this period. Turn protein skimming and UV-sterilization off for a period of 4 hours following addition to aquaria. A noticeable difference in water clarity is typically apparent within 30-minutes of dosing. Follow same instructions for new aquarium start-up. Thereafter, switch to “low-nutrient” dosage (below). Stable, Low-nutrient Systems: To maintain a low concentration of available nutrients in all marine and freshwater aquaria, 5 ml (1 capful) of MicrōBacter7 per 50 US-gallons (189.3 L) [≈2 drops per gallon (3.8 L)] of aquarium water no more than once each week; alternately, add 1 drop per 50 US-gallons daily (or 1 drop per 25 US-gallons every other day). Turn protein skimming and UV-sterilization off for a period of 4 hours following addition to aquaria. Dosage may be adjusted according to perceived benefit to aquarium, however it is recommended that the dosage not exceed 1 drop per 10 US-gallons per day. With time, hobbyists may determine that decreasing the dosage and/or dosing frequency by up to 50% sufficiently maintains a low-nutrient environment. During changes in biological filtration or when increasing the aquarium bioload, dose 1 drop per 25 US-gallons daily for one week, then resume “low-nutrient” dosage. Caution: Keep out of reach of children. Not for human consumption.

Works as intended - 0 nitrates
This stuff works as intended. I will be honest, I thought this was a type of bacteria to boost bacteria biodiversity, and technically it is but it is mostly an enzyme to tackle nitrates in your tank. Ever since I've dosed this my tank has stayed at 0-.1 nitrates which can be good at times. But some nitrate can help foster coral growth. And ever since I've dosed this, my corals haven't grown as fast as they used to. So I would say this product is great for when your tank has been established and you want to "freeze" your tanks growth. But for new tanks I would stay away for awhile and instead buy brightwell clean which has the bacteria to broaden your bacteria biodiversity. The enzymes in this product eat at the nitrates and turn it into nitrogen gas which completely eliminates nitrates so if you want some nitrates, use this product with caution. But if i had done my research and used this product as intended, it did exactly what it was meant for. Read more
It’s a great product

Helps to stabilize newer aquariums quick!
Been struggling to get my nitrite values normalized using API Quick Start. It’s Day 3 of using MicroBacter7, and my values are in a safe range. Water is clear and my fish are happy. Great product, will continue to use this from now on! Highly recommend. Read more
Chicken or the egg?
Hard to say if this really did anything for my aquarium. I added this to a fairly new setup that was having some cloudiness and it eventually got clearer but results werent overnight. With that said, it's hard to say it's because I added this. Read more
good
as far as I know it works great , the fish are still alive as well as the plants in my ten-gal tank Read more
great for shrimp tanks
This product got my shrimp tanks cycled in two weeks. I'm now two months into shrimpkeeping, and my shrimps still prefer to eat the biofilm on the hardscape over hikari algae wafers or even bacter ae. Read more
