Tunze Care Bacter is a specialised bacterial additive that helps maintain cleaner, healthier freshwater and saltwater aquariums. It uses a base of powdered Maerl gravel to deliver beneficial bacteria that compete with green and filamentous algae, thereby reducing algae growth on aquarium surfaces. These bacteria also aid in lowering nitrate and phosphate levels by consuming these compounds, which are then processed by corals, skimmers, or filters. Regular use improves the vitality of corals and fish by enhancing their defences, particularly against diseases like Vibrio infections. The result is a cleaner aquarium with reduced organic detritus, as the bacteria effectively consume waste.

Key Features:

• Algae Reduction 🌿: Competes with green and filamentous algae, visibly slowing down algae growth on aquarium panes.
• Enhanced Water Quality 🌊: Bacteria consume nitrate and phosphate compounds, aiding in nutrient control and reducing detritus.
• Vitality Boost for Corals and Fish 🐠: Supports fish and coral health, lowering disease risk and enhancing overall resilience.
• Safe and Eco-Friendly 🌱: Contains non-pathogenic, eco-safe bacteria with no risk of overdose.
• Easy Application ✔️: Includes scoop for initial and maintenance dosing, with temporary filter pause for best results.

For initial application, Tunze Care Bacter recommends a “shock vaccination” dosing for two weeks, after which a maintenance dosage will keep the aquarium clean and balanced. This bacterial treatment offers a safe, natural solution for maintaining vibrant, healthy aquariums.
