1. What causes aquarium water to be `dirty' and name 3 symptoms/signs of poor water quality. too much bioload and poor wc regime. Cloudy water, fish not eating, fish die 2. What does cycling an aquarium involve, and how can you speed up this process? It involves bringing ammonia, nitrite to zero level and nitrate to a minimum level via the nitrogen process. U can speed up the process by using Microbe lift Special blend which will seed your media instantly. 3. Where does ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate come from, and how can you control ammonia, nitrite and nitrate naturally? Ammonia is produce when waste of fish starts to decompose... Benefical bacteria (BB) breaks down ammonia and convert it to nitrite...BB then breaks down the nitrite into nitrate. 4. What Microbelift product is ideal to remove nitrate and how does it work? Microbe lift Special blend. It helps to lower ammonia levels and biologically reduces nitrates 5. What are the benefits of herbal base Bacteria and Parasite expellant verse chemical treatment? Name the 2 products from Microbelift that has either of the above function. Herbal base Bacteria and Parasite expellant provides a chemical-free treatment so is all natural. MICROBE-LIFT/Herbal Bacterial Disease Treatment and MICROBE-LIFT/Herbal Parasitic Disease Treatment |

1. usually poor aquarium maintenance, overfeeding, poor filtration. 3 sign of poor water quality are fishes not eating well, fishes started to die, excessive of algae. 2. it involves a bacteria that can break down ammonia to nitrite than into nitrate. by using Microbe lift Special blend it can speed up the process 3.Fish poop and uneaten food create ammonia when they decompose and then the bacteria in the tank convert the ammonia to nitrite and then the bacteria will convert the nitrite to nitrate. By having good media to "house" this bacteria to control ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. 4.Microbe lift Special blend, it helps to lower the ammonia and biologically reduce nitrates 5.Herbal base Bacteria and Parasite expellant are chemical free and does not adversely affect either nitrifying filter bacteria or beneficial bacterial additives. 2 products are MICROBE-LIFT PARAZORYNE and MICROBE-LIFT Herbal Bacterial Disease Treatment Last edited by ciaossu; 25-05-2011 at 01:33 AM.

1. 3 sign of poor water quality are cloudiness in tank's water, fishes starting to die, excessive of algae. 2. it involves 2 kinds bacteria that can break down ammonia to nitrite than into nitrate. Microbe lift Special blend it can speed up the process 3.Fish poop, uneaten food create ammonia when they decompose and then the bacteria in the tank convert the ammonia to nitrite and then another strain of bacteria will then convert the nitrite to nitrate. By having good media to house this bacteria to control ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. 4.Microbe lift Special blend, it helps to lower the ammonia and biologically reduce nitrates 5.Herbal base Bacteria and Parasite expellant are chemical free and does not adversely affect either nitrifying filter bacteria or beneficial bacterial additives. 2 products are MICROBE-LIFT PARAZORYNE and MICROBE-LIFT Herbal Bacterial Disease Treatment |

Here are the questions: 1. What causes aquarium water to be `dirty' and name 3 symptoms/signs of poor water quality. 2. What does cycling an aquarium involve, and how can you speed up this process? 3. Where does ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate come from, and how can you control ammonia, nitrite and nitrate naturally? 4. What Microbelift product is ideal to remove nitrate and how does it work? 5. What are the benefits of herbal base Bacteria and Parasite expellant verse chemical treatment? Name the 2 products from Microbelift that has either of the above function. 1. Overfeeding, poor water management, over bioload, dead fishes. 2. It is by ammonia, nitrate to a minimum, nitrite to zero level, we can speed up the process by using Microbe lift Special blend. 3. Ammonia created by Fish poop, uneaten food, when they decompose. Bacteria then convert the ammonia to nitrite and then another bacteria will then convert the nitrite to nitrate. We can by having good media combination to store this bacteria to control ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. 4.MICROBE LIFT SPECIAL BLEND. As it helps to lower ammonia levels and biologically reduces nitrates 5. Herbal base Bacteria & Parasite expellant provides a chemical-free treatment so is all natural as it does not affect either nitrifying filter bacteria/ beneficial bacterial additives. The 2 products are MICROBE-LIFT/Herbal Bacterial Disease Treatment and MICROBE-LIFT/Herbal Parasitic Disease Treatment. Last edited by gracy; 25-05-2011 at 09:12 AM.

1. overfeeding, high bioload, poor aquarium maintenance fish not eating well / dying, water cloudiness, algae bloom. 2. involves 2 types of bacteria: one that can break down ammonia to nitrite, another to break down nitrite to nitrate. Microbe lift Special blend it can speed up this process. 3. fish bio-wastes, excess/uneaten food. in nature, bacteria will breakdown the ammonia and nitrite. nitrates are taken in by plants during photosynthesis. 4. Microbe lift Special blend. It helps to lower ammonia levels and biologically reduces nitrates. 5. Herbal base Bacteria and Parasite expellant provides a chemical-free treatment so is all natural.

1. What causes aquarium water to be `dirty' and name 3 symptoms/signs of poor water quality.
various reasons for dirty: neglect, sick fish, over stocking which leads to high bioloads, poor filtration. symptoms - visually: cloudy water - smell: excessive fishy smell - touch: water is slighly thicker and has a slimy feel 2. What does cycling an aquarium involve, and how can you speed up this process? cycling an aquarium is a process where we allow the tank to complete its nitrification process by introduction of ammonia, nitrite and finally nitrate. we can speed up this process by using either microbe lift - Bacterial Aquarium Balancer. It prevents the so called "new tank syndrome". OR microbe lift - Special Blend a biological starter for new tank cycling and boosting both products can be used in conjunction, so i think both answers are correct and applicable 3. Where does ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate come from, and how can you control ammonia, nitrite and nitrate naturally? ammonia produced through fish waste. nitrite is form when ammonia consuming bacteria converts ammonia into nitrite. in an established aquarium there will be enough bacterias to consume all the ammonia and nitrites produced to keep their levels low, nitrite consuming bacteria produces nitrates as their by product. nitrate, which are not as harmful as the two before can be controlled by doing regular water changes or by introducing plants to the aquarium. 4. What Microbelift product is ideal to remove nitrate and how does it work? there is s slew of microbe lift product that claims to remove nitrate based on their site so i believe all these 3 are the correct answer - microbe lift special blend - microbe lift thera p - microbe lift Bacterial Aquarium Balancer. 5. What are the benefits of herbal base Bacteria and Parasite expellant verse chemical treatment? Name the 2 products from Microbelift that has either of the above function. Herbal base Bacteria and Parasite expellant provides a chemical-free treatment so is all natural. MICROBE-LIFT/Herbal Bacterial Disease Treatment and MICROBE-LIFT/Herbal Parasitic Disease Treatment |

1. What causes aquarium water to be `dirty' and name 3 symptoms/signs of poor water quality. Poorly cycled tank, fish waste and lack of proper filtration cause aquarium water to be dirty.High ammonia level , cloudy water and also constant loss of live stocks causes poor water quality. 2. What does cycling an aquarium involve, and how can you speed up this process? Cycling an aquarium is the process to grow a colony of what is known as beneficial bacteria(bb), in an aquarium.BB is essential for nitrification in the aquarium .We can speed up the process by adding tank conditioners such as microbe lift Special Blend. 3. Where does ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate come from, and how can you control ammonia, nitrite and nitrate naturally? Ammonia comes from the decomposition of waste produced by fish and left over food. BB would convert ammonia into nitrite and further into nitrate. 4. What Microbelift product is ideal to remove nitrate and how does it work? Microblift Special Blend is one of this product as it Lowers ammonia levels and biologically reduces nitrates. 5. What are the benefits of herbal base Bacteria and Parasite expellant verse chemical treatment? Name the 2 products from Microbelift that has either of the above function. Herbal base Bacteria & Parasite expellant gives a chemical-free treatment to the fishes. The two products are MICROBE-LIFT/Herbal Parasitic Disease Treatment and Herbal Bacterial Disease Treatment. |
