Lots of ppl misuse this product. Let me explain..

I attribute this misconception to the manufacturer and the instructions based on the label.This product is a biofilm enhancer. Not food for shrimp. This powder should be applied to tanks struggling to form green algae on there tanks (which normally only is needed in high tech tanks with CO2 injection or newly cycling tanks.).When I start a new tank I apply 1 spoon full (per 20g) with (no inverts or fish in the tank). Wait 2 weeks, perform 50% water change then apply 1/2 spoon full. wait another two weeks, followed by yet another water change this time at 80-90%. By 1 month the algae should be well developed and be an adequate food source for your inverts. It should be noted that this process of growing biofilm does not need bacter AE, it will happen all on its own, this merely accelerates the process.This does not including the process for nitrifiying bacteria (commonly referred to as new tank cycling. Refer to Dr. Tims or Frtiz nitrifying bacteria for these.Cons:can leads to sulfur producing bacteriareduces water quality/clarityCan produce toxic ammonia spikesPros:Produces nice BIOFILM * not direct food source*Take home message: Do not follow feeding instructions use 1/100-1/20 of the directed amount. Only when starting a new tank or when algae eaters are low. Be patient.

Vastly improved survival rates of baby shrimp

This is a great product. After ordering it arrived very quickly and was well-packaged. The jar itself is also well designed. After unscrewing the top cover it reveals an inner lid. The small measuring scoop rest on the lid and stays separated from the powdered food. The inner lid also prevents the food from turning into dust particles in the air upon opening. It also May save the food if dropped while opening. The food itself is in powdered form and is extremely fine. To Add to the tank by measuring out a portion and allow it to dissolve on the surface of your water. The water column quickly fills with food. ( Taken from the back of Jar) "Bacter AE is designed to add important microorganisms amino acids and enzymes to your aquarium it enhances water quality and improves the development of biofilms which are essential for shrimp the biofilms created provide them with a valuable staple food rich in live probiotic bacteria it improves the nutrient uptake of the shrimp and influences their digestive processes in a positive way. The bacteria cultures are activated as soon as they come into contact with water. They remove toxic substances. It provides your aquarium with a good microclimate. Contains amino acids, polysaccharides, xylanase, glucanase, amylase, protease, hemicellulase, bacillus subtilis, pediococcus acidilactici (lacrobacillus)". Once built up in your tank it should Supply a nearly endless supply of food for baby shrimp improving survival rates and allowing you to raise healthier shrimp that are better quality and are more numerous than ever before I'm a True Believer in this product. I have also added bacter AE to my guppy tank. As all fish need biofilms to support their climate. They do not seem to feed on it as readily as but in my opinion it does improve the fishes stress and comfort level. And in my opinion as well provides every surface with a nice coating of biofilm making it harder for certain types of algae from clinging on to a surface. It also May prevent your fish from scratching him or herself on rough surfaces. As the biofilm acts as a mild lubricant.

Works great

Works great for my shrimp. Only complaint is how they slap stickers over the directions. I probably use a little under half the recommended dosing, and it’s been working great in my tank

DONT FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS

Rhe directions say to add 2-3 scoops for a 20 gallon. I added about 1/4 of a scoop to my 10 gallon because I wanted to dose less than recommended, and it was still such an ungodly amount for my tank size. I immediately did a 50% water change to try to suck some out of it, but just 48 hours later I had to do another 50% water change and I am doing evey8i can to keep the cycle from fully crashing. I just got a good genetic breeding colony of neocardinias established with babies everywhere and I'm now having to test and change water daily with my parameters are all over the place. I've accepted that there's going to be a delay in the next round of eggs because my berried shrimp are dropping them from stress, but I'll be devastated I start losing shrimp.I guess this product is good for what it is, but they are insane for putting such directions on the container. I cannot imagine putting in more than an amount the size of half a grain of rice or even less in a small tank. They seriously need to update the directions for this to not become a lethal product.
