MICROBE-LIFT Gravel & Substrate Cleaner for Saltwater Aquarium and Freshwater Tanks, Tank Cleaner and Aquarium Water Conditioner, Clarifies Water, Reduces Sludge, Aquarium Supplies, 8 Ounces (GSC08)
Give your tank a deep, gentle clean with MICROBE-LIFT Gravel & Substrate Cleaner, the natural way to maintain saltwater aquariums and freshwater tanks without removing substrate. This organic, non-caustic aquarium water treatment accelerates biological breakdown up to 80% faster than bacteria alone to strip away sludge and muck hidden in fish tank gravel and other substrate. Specialized microbes in the fish tank substrate cleaner help bind excess nutrients, including phosphate and nitrate sources, which can fuel algae, while reducing odors and harmful gas buildup for a healthier environment. As it digests organics, the formula helps clarify cloudy water and can extend time between gravel vacuuming and water changes. Safe for ornamental fish and plants when used as directed. Dose 2 tsp per 10 gal every other week for heavy buildup; switch to 1 tsp per 10 gal monthly for maintenance. Full usage instructions are included on packaging. A harmless tint may appear for 48–96 hours as the actives work. While it does not directly remove established algae, lowering nutrients helps limit regrowth. For best results, pair with MICROBE-LIFT bacteria and enzyme products and your regular aquarium water conditioner routine.
