absolutely foul

I took the lid of this and started retching due to the most foul odor. I was not about to put something this putrid into my new fish tank. When I poured it into the toilet, this slimy debris oozed out of the bottle....absolutely nasty

TEST FOR AMMONIA

First Of All Chewy customer service is amazing.. they sent a new one right over but the one I was sent was pink in color and had a strong sulfur smell like it had gone bad. I tested for ammonia 4parts water and a few drops of the zyme 7.. definitely high in ammonia and you don’t want that in your tank. Bad bottle

Awesome

Since using this product alongside other products, I’ve noticed a lot of improvement in my water quality. I’ve always maintained my tank well. but this product makes it a lot easier to maintain.

Product is ok

This product was highly recommended that it should reduce the ammonia in your aquarium in a fairly short amount of time. Well, it didn't. Getting aquarium water parameters just right takes time and the answer is not found instantly in a bottle. I was under the wrong impression that it would do just this and in fact, it takes time.

Fastest way to cycle a fish tank

I used this product when introducing a fish to a new tank and was amazed that in two days the parameters of ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate were all down to acceptable levels. Really beats the lengthy process of the natural way which takes two weeks.

MAGIC IN A BOTTLE

This is my go to when ever I do water treatments and am about to purchase four bottles so I won't have to worry about purchasing more anytime soon. It cured my ammonia spike, along with the water changes that needed to happen. Without this product I believe that I would have lost all 6 of my fish.

Great product!

I am new to aquarium life and added fish in before cycling the tank. This product helped create a better environment for my fish and prevent fish loss.
