This product is especially helpful for saltwater aquariums, reef systems, quarantine tanks, and emergency situations where ammonia or nitrite control is critical. When used as directed, it can help make aquarium cycling safer and more predictable.
How to Use
Shake well before use and add Fritz TurboStart 900 SW according to the manufacturer’s directions. For best results, turn off UV sterilizers and ozone during initial dosing so the live bacteria can establish properly.
