Carib Sea Arag - Alive Saltwater Indo - Pacific Black 20 lb

Arag-Alive achieves rapid cycling by preparing and seeding the substrate grain surfaces with a wide variety of marine bacteria, most in a spored state, including strains engineered for maximum waste reduction capacity. Some types of bacteria reduce nitrogenous waste by metabolic oxidation while others incorporate nitrogen into bacterial biomass during rapid growth. Since most species of bacteria are somewhat symbiotic, and tend to colonize a surface in succession, the process of cycling an aquarium is facilitated by the close proximity of the immobilized species. Bacteria are maintained at a low metabolic rate by restricting access to certain limiting factors required for metabolism. The Eco-Complete freshwater products work in the same way, just with freshwater bacteria.

Grain Size 0.2 - 2.0 mm. Re-create an authentic Indo-Pacific fringing reef environment such as Indonesia, Hawaii, and the Pacific Rim. Dramatic natural dark substrate highlights the colors of the regions indigenous aquatic life. Spectacular!

5Great Live Sand  Feb 10, 2010
By Ken K. Pool "Tide Pool"
I started a 125 gallon marine tank and with the use of this live sand and about 40 #'s of live rock, I managed to fully cycle my tank in less than a week! Supplier sent me a bag that was "expired" and had no problems giving me a full refund on my purchase. Would highly recommend this product and the vendor I purchased it from!
