  • Freshwater Live Bacteria Strains

The secret sauce for an aquarium has always been Live Aquarium Bacteria. Getting a starter culture that was clean wasn't always easy. You can ask at a fish store, but you may get disease, snails, duckweed etc. We set out to provide live aquarium bacteria that would be as trouble-free as possible. The bio rings are packed with mulm and water from their aquarium the day we ship them out. 

Other live bacteria cultures need to be able to sit on a shelf for months at a time. Often time, these cultures are in a "dormant phase". Ours is simply fresh from our goldfish pooping factory, to a bottle, and into the mail to your door. We don't store this in a bottle on a shelf, we collect the rings and mulm water fresh and put it into your package and ship it. Put the bio rings and water into your aquarium the day you receive it in the mail.
