Pristine Natural Waste Management - Organic Sludge and Detritus Eliminator 100ml/3.4oz

WHOA! So happy with this product. And all of Seachem products!! This pristine is amazing! I overdosed Seachem Stability when I started my tank. It wasn't realy intentional. It was just because the dose for a 5 gallon is 1.25ml which is 1/4 a cap of Stability. I put it in more like 1/2 cap because. Well, I have a betta. Betta's have small bioloads. So the bacteria was just accumulating way faster than ammonia and nitrite were accumulating....this caused a very very thick biofilm. And before my cycle caught up with the bacteria....i was dealing with a very thick biofilm. I knew it would go away as my cycle progressed. And it did. However, that biofilm fell to the gravel as snow. So when I would do water changes that would get kicked up....just fly around the tank....it was bad. So I added pristine. I had talked to Seachem and they told me to wait on adding Pristine until my nitrifying bacteria were established. I waited. Then I added pristine. The bacteria went to work....but man oh man i could literally see the bacteria eating away at the biofilm sediment, my entire tank went hazy....almost like a ribbon of fog was running through it. This was very very worrisome. Pristine actually made my tank cloudy at first....it took about 48 hours to see results. i added it on a friday morning....and it wasn't until sunday night i came home and saw the results. WHOA....it's CLEAR! I am SO HAPPY!!!!! part of me really wanted to think i had screwed something up. I just had this horribly dread i was going to have to do a 100% water change and start over....but that wasn't the case! I just needed to be patient. I am so impressed!!!! I love Seachem. And all of their products. I trust them 100%. And their customer service is amazing! If you need anything just email them from their website. I LOVE PRISTINE!!! UPDATE: So i am still happy with this product. Gravel vacuuming is definitely easier. But i like to give my mystery snail zucchini. I typically leave a single piece in the tank for 24 hours before removing it....i'll remove it and not add another piece for another 24 hours or so...the first time i did this after I'd established the Pristine bacteria into my tank...i went to bed with an absolutely crystal clear aquarium. the next morning i woke up and it was super cloudy! it was obviously a bacterial bloom. and i immediately suspected the pristine reacting to the zucchini. so i emailed Seachem and explained what was going on....and they wrote back and told me that it was indeed the zucchini. i've removed the zucchini. but it's been 36 hours and a 50% water change and the bloom is just now subsiding. i am not going to downgrade my review....zucchini is organic and that is exactly what this product is supposed to do. break down organics. so if you're going to be throwing in large amounts of fresh veggies for snails or invertebrates i would just keep this in mind. i think i'll still feed my snail veggies...but it will not stay in the tank for more than a couple of hours.

Great to keep water clear!

Great addition for my fish tank

We have multiple tanks, we love the clarity and health of all of them. Using the best products and because of the number of tanks, having the best of price is number one on our list. We have various Seachem products that work well for us, protect our tanks quality and the health of our fish. We have fry that we want to keep healthy upon berth and the chemicals must be safe. We do recommend Seachem.

It works really great! It is the only brand that I use. Ships really fast.

Excellent choice to keep dangerous Nitrates, Nitrides, and ammonia levels down by using an adaptive bacteria blend to consume organic waste and unsightly sludge. This in turn promotes water clarity and a healthier environment for all aquatic animals.

I have had cloudy water to varying degrees in my tank for a good while. I tried carbon infused filter fiber in the filters, which may have helped somewhat but not much and of course I had been doing water changes. I then used the Pristine, I think two times and the water may have looked a bit clearer after a few days, but a week later it was still sort of cloudy. I eventually used API Accu-Clear, it took two doses and the water became amazing clear and has stayed that way for over a month. The Pristine is specific bacteria that eats biofilm, detritus, etc.. The API Accu-Clear clumps particles that are suspended in the water together and they fall to the bottom of the tank or get sucked up into the filter. The Accu-Clear obviously cleared the water amazingly well and quick but at this point, a month later, I have to conclude the Pristine is playing a role, because there is absolutely no algae or biofilm in the tank, on the walls especially, everything is cleaner including the gravel. The intake and outtake tubes of my hang on the back filter are extremely clean and clear, which was not the case before I used this. They really would get mucky in side and out. So I will continue to use the Pristine along which the Accu-Clear as I need to.

Llego rapido, producto genial.

Product delivery is good. I think it is working as my fishes remain happy even when I don't change water for 15 days against earlier weekly water change.

Muito rapido a entrega

AIにて勧められた商品だが使ってみるとデトリタスの分解が他社の物より早く感じる水換えの要らない水槽を作ってるのですがそんな夢に近づけるんじゃないかとAIとタッグを組み使用中 1週間に5ccから2.5cc程度なんでコストもいいと思う GEXサイクルとプリスティンとPSBにて運用中です。 今の所、魚たちは落ちていません
