Soll Bactinettes

[cane76]

anyone heard of it?anyone used it?
its supposed to be a instant cycle product
apparently your supposed to fully stock your tank straight away after adding it to your media
sounds to good to be true to me

absolutly the best product on the market.
you won't have any ammonia, no2 or no3 within 48hrs of dosing with it.
provided the bactinetts have been chilled correctly and are still within the use by date

no quite, you still need to check the levels but you can lightly stock with confidence.
obviously adding 30 fish in one go is gonna be too much for the bacteria in bactinettes to handle
just the same as adding that many fish to an established filter is gonna be pushing it.

at my old job we'd recomend adding the bactinetts at the same time as adding you first 6-10 fish
and even then only with hardy fish like danios, wcmms etc.

but they sure do reduce the time to 'cycle' a tank
also very worth getting hold of in an emergancy like a filter crash or an ammonia spike ertc
