Bacter boost: does it really cycle your new tank in two days?

[kariina]

I saw this product and it claims to do just that!. I find this hard to believe and dont want to waste 20 bucks to find out if its a dud or not.

Anybody have any reviews on this product or has used it? its made by weiss organics. Any info would be appreciated.

Don't waste your money. If you have a friend with an established tank, get filter media from them, or you can start fresh with ammonia. The only product that I have ever heard anything good about is Bio-spira, but that's only if the store and it's supplier handled it correctly (refrigerated).

I don't trust those to give me a complete cycle. Spend the $.15 on a raw, unseasoned jumbo shrimp from your local grocery store. I suggest 1 shrimp per 30G of water.

Kariina, please do not double post. I will merge the two topics.
