Dr. Tim's One & Only Nitrifying Bacteria- 8 oz

Dr.Tim’s Aquatics One and Only Nitrifying Bacteria

Eliminate new tank syndrome with One and Only Live Nitrifying Bacteria. The key to setting up a successful aquarium is to quickly convert the fish waste to a non-toxic form. This is done by nitrifying bacteria. Under normal conditions it can take 30 to 45 days for these bacteria to become naturally established in a newly set-up aquarium. Unfortunately, during this time period, ammonia and nitrite can increase to levels toxic to fish; a condition called New Tank Syndrome. One and Only Nitrifying Bacteria accelerates the process so that you can set up a tank immediately.
Use One and Only when setting up a new tank, after a water change, cleaning your filter, when adding new fish and after a disease treatment to control ammonia and nitrite. Use as directed.

Benefits:
Instantly create a bio filter
Remove toxic ammonia and nitrite, naturally
No sulfur or other offensive odors
No wait needed
100% natural

Before adding One and Only to your tank, make sure the water has been dechlorinated. Research has shown that One and Only can be safely used with DrTim’s Aquatics’ AquaCleanse tap water detoxifier. Other dechlorinates can be used but some are harmful to One and Only: do not use any product that contains aldehydes in its formula. UV-sterilizers and protein skimmers should be turned off before adding One and Only and remain off for 36-48 hours after dosing. It is important to shake the bottle well before adding One and Only. If you see only a clear liquid, you have not shaken One and Only well enough. Pour the One and Only over the biological filter media in your biofilter. If you do not have dedicated filter media, it is fine to pour the liquid into the fish tank water.
