Starting a new fresh water 20 gal tank and have not been able to get my ammonia and nitrite levels down. Went and bought this at petco. Gave my tank a double dose and within 24 hours my ammonia levels reduced by half but my nitrites unchanged. Seems to be working but will give it a few more days.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Can you add this to existing tank with fish that are already in there?
- Absolutely! Using the required amounts for the tank size will not harm the fish in the tank.
Helpful?
Is it safe for turtle?
- Yes. However I would recommend a water conditioner that is specific for turtles. They do sell it and I would do that as it includes additional vitamins turtles need for their shell and necessary for their health.

Will this product raise Kh? Mine is low and I am not sure what I need to do to raise it.
- The instructions call for 5 mL per 10 gallons. At that rate the KH rise in distilled water is not measurable with the API test kit that I have. It takes 75.7 mL of Microbe-Lift Extreme per gallon of distilled water to raise the KH to 7 degrees. I don’t see any warnings on the website about using too much. Add some and test your water. Add more if it is still low. You could also use some bottled drinking water to raise KH and GH. I have the opposite problem as you do. My hardness is too high, so I use 50/50 tap and distilled water.

Will microbe lift extreme remove copper?
- It will detoxify copper, but not remove it.

Is this okay for mystery snails? Theyre very sensitive to chemicals.
- It is safe for all snails.

What does “ buffers to help stabilize the treated water's pH and alkalinity (acid-neutralizing capacity)” mean? Will this product cause my ph to go up?
- No. The product is designed to help prevent fluctuations in pH and KH.
Helpful?
Will microbelift extreame help lower water hardness (gh)?
- Extreme will not lower water hardness. The best way to lower hardness is to do partial water changes using R/O or distilled water.
Helpful?
I just bought this and the Special blend aquarium bacteria, can I put them in at the same time or do I have to put one in first and then wait to do the other ?
- Use the Xtreme first to make sure any chlorine or chloramines have been removed from the water. You only need to wait a few minutes before adding the Special Blend.
Helpful?
How long until I can see a lowering of my nitrates and nitrites with this product?
- Microbe-Lift Xtreme Water Conditioner will lower Nitrites almost instantly. It will not lower Nitrates. Microbe-Lift Special Blend is the one that is able to reduce Nitrates. For more information, please contact the manufacturer at 239-573-6650, ask for Karin. It will all be explained to you to help you get the best out of your aquarium. Thank you for choosing Microbe-Lift!
