Seachem Pristine 250ml Liquid desludger
Pristine - uses biological, natural, non-chemical methods to increase water quality. It contains bacteria that break down excess food and dead organic matter in freshwater and marine systems. It also reduces excess metabolic constituents (e.g. ammonia, nitrates, nitrites), which are toxic in higher concentrations, less stressful, and fuel the growth of pathogenic organisms.
Pristine makes the water clearer, and has a positive effect on the health of the aquatic environment. The bacterial strains contained in Pristine can thrive in saltwater or freshwater, and are able to dispose of a wide range of organic compounds including grease, which can cause unsightly water. Unlike traditional nitrifying bacteria, this bacterial mixture can adapt to low-oxygen, or high-oxygen conditions and continue to multiply and improve water quality.
The biopolymers produced by individual bacterial colonies increase the clarity of the water. The bacterial strains in Pristine are unique and selected to adapt to different environmental conditions.
Directions for use:
