Fritz TurboStart 700 Freshwater is a powerful live nitrifying bacteria supplement designed to rapidly establish biological filtration in aquariums. This product contains proven strains that quickly eliminate toxic ammonia and nitrite levels, effectively preventing new tank syndrome. By introducing beneficial bacteria immediately, aquarists can safely add livestock without waiting weeks for the nitrogen cycle to complete naturally.

Formulated at fifteen times the concentration of standard starter liquids, this solution cycles aquariums in five days or less. The live bacteria remain viable when kept refrigerated between thirty-four and fifty degrees Fahrenheit with a shelf life of up to four months. Users must ensure chlorine and chloramines are completely removed from water before application and should turn off UV sterilizers and protein skimmers during dosing to protect the culture.

This supplement is ideal for new tank owners seeking immediate stocking capabilities or hobbyists needing to fortify established systems after maintenance. It is particularly useful following aggressive cleaning, medication treatments, water changes, or the addition of new filter media. Whether starting a new project or maintaining an existing biofilter, this natural approach ensures fish loss is minimized while promoting a healthy aquatic environment.
