Seems to work
By Mike on Jun 20, 2021
In my new tank I added decor from an old tank with old filters and it still didn't cycle, than added this product for the whole tank volume and a few days later the aquarium is cycled after checking it with a test kit. Ready for fish.

When in doubt its perfect
By Angel on Apr 17, 2021
Quickstart is actually super helpful, when you're having trouble getting your tank to cycle or have a huge bacteria bloom this stuff knocks it right out. It started working in a matter of hours, just make sure you have something to take care of the chlorine and your ph is balanced.

IS AS ADVERTISED
By Jalen on Jun 3, 2020
I have an aquatic turtle tank and I use this to cycle my tank and while doing water changes. I have a test kit and it really did keep my ammonia at the correct levels and I'm gonna be using this product forever. It has a measurement cap on the top for accuracy and I would 100% recommend!

do not buy!!!
By niz018 on May 18, 2020
this stuff claims to help start the cycling process but it doesn’t. in a lot of cases it actually HURTS the cycle and messes it up. you’re better off using the food cycling method. save yourself the money and don’t get it!!!’

Great for filter media changes and adding new fishes
By Melanie on Aug 7, 2019
We always use this when setting up a new tank, changing filter media or adding new fishes. Instantly creates a great environment for fish to survive water and filter changes and we also use a stress coat too.

No difference
By Rogue on Nov 18, 2018
It's been two weeks since I added Quick Start to my new 75 gallon tank. First I followed the dosing instructions on the bottle. After 7 days with no impact to the ammonia, nitrite, or nitrate levels in tank, I poured in the rest of the bottle. It's now been 14 days and the product has had no effect on the aquarium whatsoever. Waste of money.
