Why does Bacteria get a bad rap?

When you hear the word Bacteria, you think gross!  But bacteria in an aquarium is essential.  That is the healthy beneficial bacteria that helps to break down waste and keep a stable environment.  When you are setting up an aquarium, we highly recommend that you 'jump start' the healthy bacteria colonization by adding 'Stability' the water additive by Seachem.  The stuff works great and is very concentrated so it goes a long way.
If you have a pond, please ask us about healthy jump start bacteria that works in colder water.
Stability .... the Danactive of the Aquarium World.
