  • Great price!
Size: 16.9-Ounce
I have been using this in my 20 aquarium for years. Can't ever find it at the stores. It easy to use and works great. Takes a little while to dissolve.

  • This has saved my fish a couple times
Size: 16.9-Ounce
Sometimes I just don't have time to clean the tank as I should. If I've gone a little too long and don't have time in the near future to clean my tank, I just pour some of this in the water. I'm sure it has saved my fish from dying in the pollution a couple times. I love it! Highly recommend it!

  • Not sure this is ok Not sure this is ok
Size: 16.9-Ounce
Update: fish didn't die lol! Emailed the company and they confirmed this is how is supposed to be. Not sure if it works but I'm using it when needed. Original review: Unsure if this one is a bad one, but I opened the lid. Had no seal. Not sure if it's supposed to. I poured the dose in and it was so thick it looked chunky in the water. My angel went and ate a bunch of it. The only bit that wasn't eaten landed on the bottom of the tank and isn't dissolving. I'm worried now this is not good and I might be losing fish. I did email tetra worried about this now and hoping for clarity. I know ordering from Amazon sometimes we don't get the authentic product which now I'm really regretting not running down to the store and grabbing a bottle. ... show more

  • Really Improves Water Quality
Size: 16.9-Ounce
I've had a lot of problems with elevated nitrates for quite some time despite frequent water changes. I managed to stumble across this product after doing a Google search on ways to decrease nitrates and thought I would give it a try. I did notice there were several comments regarding this product making the aquarium water cloudy but did see a comment that mentioned giving the bottle a good shake and whisking before adding the water to the aquarium. I've done that and haven't had an issues with cloudy water and my fish appear to have a lot more pep over the course of the last month. As well, test strips are showing a steady drop off of nitrates in the water. Don't expect that to happen overnight. And you have to be consistent with your water changes using a gravel vac. I have a 20 gallon tank and usually replace 20% - 25% of the water weekly. I give the bottle a good shake and add 2 cap fulls of EasyBalance to approximately 1 gallon of water. Give it a really good whisk and add the rest of the water. I tried whisking with a full 5 gallons of water in the bucket and did have some slight cloudiness in the aquarium water. You won't get as good of a mix if you whisk in a full bucket of water versus a small amount. I recommend this product to help improve the health of your aquarium. ... show more

  • Excellent Tank Product
Size: 16.9-Ounce
I have been using this for over 6 years. It will decrease the amount of times you have to clean your tank by A LOT. If you add this per the instructions you will get good results. The down side is, if you add it per the instructions the bottle doesn't last too long. But, it is still worth it. I have had this stuff in some pretty full tanks, and it still drastically decreased the amount of cleaning I had to do. You will see a difference almost immediately, and I have never experienced discolored water. I am guessing there was something else wrong in the water that caused the yellowing the other reviewer mentioned. It does have tiny yellow particles in it. But, they settle to the bottom and disappear within a short amount of time. Try it, you won't regret it, and your fish will love it. ... show more
