I have never used it and do not recommend for "jump starting" a tank, I have enough fish friends that use it to help reduce the sludge in there canisters and say it does make a deference. These fish friends been running fish for 20 years plus so I trust there opinion on it.

First dose was dropped last night, fish seem fine and were eating well this morning. Left the drip on.

Let's see what happens... :D

I add 1/4 teaspoon every 10 days or so, but I am using a different product. (Bactri-pond)

Some were also doing 1 tablespoon per 90 gallons every two weeks.

I'm dosing my 120g with 1 tablespoon weekly with WC's.

Are you noticing the same benefits at that dosage ?

I dose a few days before each water change, when the organic load is starting to near its peak.
