WASTE MANAGEMENT: Seachem’s Pristine uses bioaugmentation, a non-chemical and natural method, to improve water quality. It provides bacteria that break down excess food, waste, and detritus in freshwater and marine systems. HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT: Seachem Pristine works to reduce excess nutrients (e. g. ammonia, nitrates, and nitrites) that may fuel the growth of nuisance and disease-causing organisms, working to increase water clarity and promote overall better health for the aquatic environment. GOOD BACTERIA: The bacteria species in Pristine thrive in fresh or saltwater and can utilize a wide range of organic compounds, including fats that cause unsightly films. BLEND: This bacterial blend can adapt to harsh or low oxygen environments and continue to multiply and improve water conditions. CARE: Shake Pristine well before use and be sure to turn off UV/ozone. Use 1 capful (5 mL) for each 40 L (10 US gallons). Then use a maintenance dose of 1 capful (5 mL) per 80 L (20 US gallons) with additions of livestock or the disruption of the biofilter through cleaning or medications.
