Review: Amazing and it actually WORKS!!!!! - I’ve tried many products that has said that they can mature a biological filter but they have ALL failed APART from this one!!!! It’s amazing! It worked within 2 weeks with my Ammonia and nitrite dropping to zero. I’m so impressed that I’ve ordered another just to put a small amount in for water changes etc
