Things to remember
when using Bio-Spira™ ! |
|
-
Since this product contains live bacteria,
Bio-Spira™ is a product that requires refrigeration. If either
you or your local fish store allows this product to be warmed (i.e.
to room temperature) and allowed to stay there for a period of time,
it may no longer be effective.
|
|
-
Once the bottle has been opened, the container
can be reclosed and stored in a refrigerator for up to 6 months, after
which time, it may not be effective.
|
-
Antibiotics, which harm beneficial bacteria
(the bio filter), should not be used. A short list of these include
erythromycin, tetracycline, penicillin/amoxicillin/ampicillin, nitrofurazone
and kanamycin (at higher dosages).
|
-
UV light filters will kill the bacteria
in Bio-Spira™ when it remains in the water before it adheres
to the gravel, filter media, tank walls, etc. A UV filter may be used
48 hours after Bio-Spira has been added to the tank.
|
-
Bio-Spira™ is safe for plants, animals,
and aquatic life, and so is non-toxic and one cannot overdose with
it.
