I'm not sure what happen to the video uploads. 02 of the Stability and none of the Microbe-Lift (which was the much more active one) have uploaded yet. I'll have to check when I get home later tonight.

Microbe-Lift Special Blend
This had lots of different bacterium shapes and forms. But I'm not sure I would put it in my tank. Hydrogen Sulphide based it seems or at least strongly smells of. Not sure how long those bacteria would last but if you have a sulfur based denitrator this could may help speed up getting that going. I also see on the bottle it says saltwater will slow it down somehow and to dose double. I would assume then much if that bacteria in there is for freshwater and probably great for sewage treatments. It's a very interesting mix though.
Here's that piece I made sure to get in there. I eventually break it up when switching to the 100x lens.

I'll be getting that Vibrant product, seems to be the latest craze in bacteria in a bottle, when it comes back in stock. This product has been making some very bold claims so will have some fun with it.

For the past week or so I've been over feeding more then I normally over feed to spur on some cyano and eventually some dinoflagelet outbreaks. I'll probably start up another thread as to the details why but basically I'm actually going to test out some bacteria in a bottle for the first time. I've looked at several but this one has some wild claims but also some interesting reviews to back some of those claims up potentially. So, I want to do some testing.
