Bacter Gen F will replenish and creates nitrifying bacteria. If your starting up a tank it is very important to have nitrifying to break down toxic ammonia and when ever you clean your filter you will remove part of you established bacteria and Gen F will help to bring it back. The Continuum advantage. Bacter gen F Water Conditioners breakthrough microbial culture specifically for establishing and maintaining freshwater systems BacterGen F is a breakthrough in microbial cultures. Specifically designed for freshwater aquariums, BacterGen F rapidly establishes nitrifying biological filtration in new aquariums, greatly reducing the time it takes to cycle the system. It also improves the aquarium environment by delivering bacteria to digest leftover food, decaying organic material and detritus, providing a cleaner environment for your aquarium inhabitants. Whereas competing products may increase the production of toxic hydrogen sulfide in the system, BacterGen F is non-sulfur fixing and will reduce it to near zero. BacterGen F contains both aerobic and anaerobic microbes which will generate new populations and greatly increase existing bacterial populations to establish and accelerate nitrification and denitrification. Use in aquarium keeping. Aquarium systems accumulate waste from uneaten food, feces and other organic material. Over time, this accumulation lowers water quality, releases toxic gases into the water, and creates sludge on the bottom. BacterGen•F, will rapidly increase the population of beneficial microorganisms, resulting in an increase in water clarity, reduction of organic matter, and a decrease in undesirable nutrients, particularly ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and phosphate.
