Customer Questions & Answers

  • Question : Can Fluval Biological Enhancer be used in both fresh and saltwater aquariums?
    Answer : Yes, it is suitable for both.
  • Question : When should I use Fluval Biological Enhancer?
    Answer : It is strongly recommended for new aquarium set-ups and regular application.
  • Question : Will Fluval Biological Enhancer prevent the establishment of undesirable bacteria in my aquarium?
    Answer : Yes, regular application will help to exclude the establishment of undesirable bacteria in aquariums.
  • Question : How much do I need for setting up a new 75g freshwater tank?
    Answer : Pour in half of 16.9 oz. bottle upon set up, On the 8th day ,pour the rest in. It is recommended to dose the tank when new arrivals are added.
  • Question : What size bottle is recommended for a 6 gallon tank?
    Answer : For a six-gallon tank you can add three to 4 full caps of the 8.4 oz bottle to get a good amount of bacteria in there to start the cycle.
  • Question : What size do I need for a 40 gallon breeder tank?
    Answer : The directions state 25 ml per 10 gallons on day 1 (100 ml) and then 10 ml per 10 gallons on day 2 and 3 (40 ml per day) so a total of 180 ml is recommended for your 40 gallon breeder. I do a sustainment treatment every week of 5 ml per 10 gallons (another 20 ml).
  • Question : If I put this in a new tank how quickly will it cycle the tank? Will the bacteria stay in the tank or die off after a bit? Is it cycled permanently?
    Answer : It took almost 8 weeks for the tank to cycle. Once the tank cycles, it should be at 0 for Amonia levels. Then you can get fish you want to keep.
  • Question : Does shipping in hot weather (around 100°F) harm the bacteria?
    Answer : Nitrifying bacteria will die at 120 degrees F (49 degrees C), the optimum growth temperature is 77-86 degrees F (25-30 degrees C).
  • Question : What is the dosage for a 10-gallon tank? Wondering what size to buy.
    Answer : The recommended dosage is 100mls; 10 ml per gallon of water. Double the dose the first day.
  • Question : Is this different than naturally occurring bacteria? Does this bacteria outcompete natural bacteria so you must add this all the time to stay cycled?
    Answer : It eliminates ammonia and nitrite from the water, which is harmful to fresh water fish. Prevents fish loss. The "fish expert" at the pet store recommends always adding this when doing a partial water change or adding more water to the tank or when first setting up a tank.
  • Question : Do I need to turn off the UV sterilizer when adding this to an established tank? The bio balance was disrupted due to medication. How long should the?
    Answer : Turn off the UVA/UVB sterilizer 24 to 48 hours after use. It will kill the good bacteria in your tank and filter.
  • Question : Is the bacteria visible with the naked eye?
    Answer : No! Beneficial bacteria can not be seen without the aid of a microscope.
  • Question : Will this work on a bare tank?
    Answer : Yes! It helps boost the cycle to get it going. You will still need a source of ammonia for the bacteria to break down however. You would either have to induce ammonia in chemical form or fish food to help keep the process going.
