ADA Bacter 100
ADA Bacter 100 is a specialized substrate additive developed by Aqua Design Amano to help establish and maintain a healthy biological foundation in planted aquariums. This unique product contains more than 100 strains of beneficial bacteria in a dormant state that activate once introduced into your aquarium substrate, promoting nutrient cycling and overall ecosystem stability.
Key Features & Benefits:
-
Contains 100+ Beneficial Bacterial Strains: Packed with a diverse spectrum of dormant microbes designed to activate in the aquarium environment and boost biological processes.
-
Enhances Substrate Health: When sprinkled onto a base substrate (like ADA Power Sand), Bacter 100 helps create an ideal microbial environment that supports nutrient decomposition and conversion for plant uptake.
-
Promotes Nutrient Cycling: The bacteria accelerate the breakdown of organic waste and improve nutrient availability, supporting strong root growth and healthier aquatic plants.
-
Supports Ecosystem Stability: By fostering beneficial bacterial communities, Bacter 100 contributes to a more stable aquarium environment with better water quality and reduced harmful buildup.
-
Helps Suppress Algae: Applied onto substrate or problematic areas, it can help suppress the growth of blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) through improved biological competition.
-
Safe for Fish, Shrimp & Plants: Designed for freshwater planted systems and safe for all aquarium inhabitants when used as directed.
Usage:
Sprinkle ADA Bacter 100 evenly across the base substrate before adding additional soils or sand, or use as a targeted additive during tank setup or maintenance to support microbial activity and substrate health.
ADA Bacter 100 is ideal for new tank setups, substrate revitalization, and promoting long-term stability in planted aquariums, helping aquarists create a thriving, balanced underwater ecosystem.
