Does it work and where can I buy it? If I had some would I be able to have fish safely in 3-4 days? I heard about someone name Bernie selling them, can I buy some from him?
Can you be more specific? What size tank, what fish load, and what kind of NH3 and NO2 levels after adding Bio-Spira and fish? I keep hearing praises for this product, but I would love to hear a more technical review.Yor tank stil cycles but without spikes and much quicker.
I followed the thread for about 10 pages..when people started arguing I had to stop. It is very encouraging. It would seem that most of the early users of B-S followed thier tanks out over a month, and even used it on a second tank. I had a little trouble figuring out what their bio-load was, since I wasn't familiar with many of the fish. But it would seem that they used at least one inch of fish for each 5 gallons, and maybe more. I am currently 18 days into a new tank, stocked with 1 inch per 5 gal, and NO Bio-spira (the old fashioned way!) - and still have all zeroes. I will post the data after 45 days or when I have nitate>5.Look at the difference between those that added BIO-Spira + Fish and those who add FISH than LATER BIO-Spira...
SoylentGrundy said:Those products do help with shaving off cycling time, but there is no real "magic potion" to add to water that works better than simply being patient. So long as you dont add a bunch of fish to a new tank, you should be alright. Just add a bit at a time and you should do well.
