Designed to raise the level of magnesium safely in a marine system and will not upset the ionic balance.
This concentrated supplement contains over 72,000 ppm of cationic magnesium. It is nitrate, phosphate and gluconate free.
Magnesium has an important role in keeping concentrations of calcium in the marine system. If the concentrations of magnesium drops it will be very difficult to increase the concentrations of calcium. Due to the rapid bonding of calcium and carbonates in the marine system, this is usually manifested by what is referred to as a snow storm (precipitate) upon addition of calcium or alkaline buffer. The concentration of magnesium should be maintained at 1,320 mg/L. (1,320 ppm) natural seawater concentration.
MICROBE-LIFT/Magnesium Supplement is a bio-available natural component.
MICROBE-LIFT/Magnesium Supplement does not require any pre-dissolving and is an essential element for hard and soft corals, which is normally depleted by filtration and coral absorption. Magnesium Supplement is ionically balanced for reef and marine aquaria.
It is not necessary to use more magnesium supplement than recommended to increase and maintain the concentration level.

May cause some brief cloudiness depending on water quality
Combines:
Two pH adjusters for buffered effectiveness
Three electrolytes to help maintain osmotic balance
One slime coat ingredient for skin protection and stress reduction
Note: With all pH adjusting products, the alkalinity level (water hardness) should be adjusted to a normal range (100-200 ppm) before any effective and stable pH adjustment can be made.
Make recommended application in several steps to avoid over-adjustment and pH bounce.

MICROBE-LIFT/Rock & Substrate Cleaner speeds the biological breakdown of slow to degrade organic waste matter from tank bottoms that may become toxic to turtles. As organic solids accumulate on the tank bottom they begin to break down, releasing toxic gases and by-products to the surrounding environment.
MICROBE-LIFT/Rock & Substrate Cleaner biologically degrades bottom organic sludge and muck, reducing or eliminating the potential harmful gaseous compounds, and helps to clarify your tank water at the same time.
Provides rapid natural sludge reduction
80% faster than bacterial products alone
Cleans turtle shells & limbs
Helps to degrade fecal matter
Improves filtration
MICROBE-LIFT/Rock & Substrate Cleaner will discolor your tank water for 48-96 hours after application. The length of time to clear the discoloration will depend on your filter system.
MICROBE-LIFT/Rock & Substrate Cleaner will also help to clarify dirty tank water.
Cautions
Keep out of the reach of children.
Avoid skin or eye contact. If contact occurs, flush area thoroughly with cold water.
A new tank starter for biological cycling and boosting
An organic waste degrader
Naturally stimulates plant growth
Lowers ammonia levels and biologically reduces nitrates
Removes odors and clears cloudy water
Biological maintainer for established tanks
Enhances ability of plants to utilize light, water and nutrients
Breaks down residue on gravel, plants ,rocks, etc.
Breaks down protein foam
These bacteria are compatible with biological filters and UV lights. The UV lights should be turned off for 48-72 hours after the introduction of this product. This will allow the bacteria to progress through their most active growth stage.
MICROBE-LIFT/Special Blend can not neutralize chlorine, chloramine or heavy metals.
MICROBE-LIFT/Special Blend works well with activated carbon and is compatible with copper based products.
Since each bottle of MICROBE-LIFT is grown individually, color variations may exist from bottle to bottle. These variations in color are not indicative of variations in product quality. Any floating particles present are suspended biofilm which slough off the sides of the bottle. Dimpling or expansion of the container is caused by pressure differences resulting from temperature variations due to the fact that the bottle is sealed.
*Saltwater environments - the bacteria in this product will remain effective when used in marine environments with a specific gravity of 1.017 to 1.025. In marine tanks, add the aquarium salt mix and allow the water to circulate for 24 hours, then check and adjust the density. Add the bacteria after the new water has circulated for the 24-hour period.
Saltwater oceans are a highly stable environment with very little fluctuation in pH. The ocean waters dilute fish waste and organic matter. The bacteria in MICROBE-LIFT/Special Blend provides the assistance needed to break down the decaying organic matter and cycle certain elements, e.g. nitrogen and sulfur, etc. which may build up in your tank.
This product is NOT a chemical. It is harmless to humans, animals, fish and plants. Since we cannot control the pre-existing dynamics of individual aquaria, the above information and instructions are subject to many variables. Many situations may be unique in nature.
MICROBE-LIFT/Special Blend has a hydrogen sulfide odor which will dissipate quickly.
Available Sizes:

8 fl. oz. (251 mL.) (SBH08) Treats a 65 gal. tank for 32 weeks.
16 fl. oz. (473 mL.) (SBH16) Treats a 75 gal. tank for 46 weeks.

MICROBE-LIFT/Aquatic Stress Relief was specially formulated to calm fish and reduce stress caused by water changes and during transport.
MICROBE-LIFT/Aquatic Stress Relief will add protective slime coat conditioners which will form multiple layers of protection on your fishes skin. These slime coat conditioners will help with bruises, missing scales, and damaged skin.
MICROBE-LIFT/Aquatic Stress Relief will remove chlorine and breaks down chloramines while neutralizing heavy metals, such as copper, zinc, and iron which may be fatal to fish, as well as, invertebrates.
Essential electrolytes are added to help maintain balance.
This product is intended for use with all ornamental pond and aquarium fishes. Not for use with fishes or aquatic invertebrates intended for human consumption. This is not a medication or economic poison and is not intended for use as such.
