This is the best bottled bacteria I’ve ever used. The 16 oz bottle helped cycle my 210 gallon tank in just 9 days. Would recommend this to anyone starting up a new tank
Jordan Sims –
I was so excited to try Fritz Turbo Start on my new tank. It arrived warm and I was under the impression it should be cold. I followed the directions and added the nitrocycle and turbo start to my sump. It has been about 2 weeks and I still have some ammonia and nitrites. It did jump start my cycle, but I absolutely havent felt comfortable moving my livestock over to it yet. I think it’s a little expensive considering you could start your cycle with any form of ammonia.

Best way to jump start that long process of cycling! Cycled my 70gal in one week with this and fritz ammonia.
