Tetra Easy Start Bacteria 50ml

Tetra SafeStart is a unique patented formula created by experts at Tetra to allow you as the hobbyist, the quick and safe introduction of new fish into your aquarium. The 50ml solution contains specially bred, living nitrifying bacteria that substantially reduce harmful ammonia and nitrite in tanks.

Tetra SafeStart is ideal for keeping fish healthy and maintaining biological activity following water changes, filter maintenance, power cuts etc. It can also be used to resolve problems with high ammonia or nitrite in both new and established aquariums.

Application:

When setting up a new aquarium: Set the aquarium up and turn on all equipment, using Tetra AquaSafe to condition the water. Wait at least 24hrs to ensure that the equipment is working correctly, and to allow the aquarium to reach the correct temperature. Then add 5ml of SafeStart per 6 litres of water, at the same time as adding the fish. We recommend adding a moderate number of fish, under the direction of your aquatics outlet.

As a precaution, in the two weeks following the introduction of the fish, we recommend regularly testing the ammonia and nitrite level using TetraTest kits. If levels rise, perform a partial water change using Tetra AquaSafe to reduce them.

Following filter maintenance, water quality problems, or water changes: Add 5ml of SafeStart per 6 litres of water.

If storing SafeStart, keep between 10 deg C & 30 deg C. Aquarium water must be 20 deg C (room temperature) or above. Shelflife of 12 months.
