Then my levels where off again but not quit as severe. I would probably add it again only because it gave my tank the boost it needed, as I was to impatient to wait for it to happen naturally

I'd definitely recommend it They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes, They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver, So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.

After 4 days of continuous "feeding" with Bio Spira the tank was cycled. Nevertheless, I stocked slowly as the beneficial bacteria colony has to increase in size with any fish added. I haven't used it with my other two tanks as both got a headstart by being heavily planted. This way no cycling was required.
