API Marine Quick Start

Introduction

API Marine Quick Start is a fast-acting solution designed to establish and strengthen biological filtration in saltwater and reef aquariums. It contains live nitrifying bacteria that immediately begin converting harmful ammonia and nitrites into less toxic compounds, accelerating the cycling process and creating a safe, stable environment for marine fish, corals, and invertebrates. Perfect for both new setups and existing tanks in need of bacterial support, it helps ensure a balanced and thriving marine ecosystem.

Features

• Rapid Biological Cycling – Introduces beneficial bacteria that instantly activate the nitrogen cycle.

• Reef-Safe Formula – Gentle and safe for fish, corals, invertebrates, and live plants.

• Ammonia & Nitrite Reduction – Quickly lowers harmful toxins that can stress or endanger marine life.

• Improves Water Quality – Stabilizes parameters while supporting clearer, healthier water.

• Simple Dosing – Easy-to-use liquid formulation integrates seamlessly into regular maintenance.

Usage

• New Tank Setup: Add 1 capful (5 mL) per 10 gallons (38 L) immediately after filling and setting up equipment. Introduce fish only once ammonia and nitrite test at safe levels (0 ppm).

• Established Tanks: Dose 1 capful per 10 gallons (38 L) during water changes or after filtration disruptions.

• Ammonia/Nitrite Spikes: Add 1 capful per 10 gallons to quickly restore balance and reduce toxins.

Available Size

• 473 mL – Provides ample supply for medium and large aquariums with multiple treatments.

Recommendations

• For New Aquariums: Greatly reduces cycling time by jumpstarting biological filtration with live bacteria.

• For Maintenance: Use during routine water changes or when adding new livestock to prevent instability.

• Crisis Recovery: An effective solution for tanks experiencing sudden ammonia or nitrite spikes due to stress events, overfeeding, or equipment malfunctions.
