Biomature
Biomature : Filtration Maturation Fluid
Biomature is a scientifically formulated mixture of those bacterial nutrients, vitamins and mineral salts necessary for the rapid maturation of a bacterial filter.
For quickest maturation, use Bacterlife concentrated bacterial culture together with Biomature before the creatures are introduced into the system.
Biomature should be added daily until a nitrite reading of 10 ppm is achieved: and then wait until the nitrite reading drops to zero, before adding any stock. The use of a good quality Nitrite Test Kit is recommended.
Use Biomature to keep filtration bacteria alive should your system ever be empty of fishes/invertebrates for more than 24 hours. e.g. in a hospital or quarantine tank
120 ml : treats up to 3,600 litres / 800 gals
Dose Rate : Add 1 drop per 4.5 litres (1 gal) daily until a reading of 10 ppm of Nitrite is achieved
For Hospital/Quarantine tanks : Add 1 drop per 4.5 litres (1 gal) every 7 days whilst tank is empty of livestock
