PRB AQUARIUM STENGTH is a powerful probiotic blend containing carefully selected bacterial strains that promote bioremediation, enhance nutrient cycling, and reduce disease. Designed to address a broad range of challenges in aquatic environments, PRB supports water quality, solid waste digestion, and overall system health. 

Key Benefits:

  1. Enhanced Nutrient Cycling 🔄
    PRB bacteria play a critical role in balancing the nutrient cycle by assimilating solid and dissolved waste. They digest a wide range of organic matter, including:

    • Fats, lipids, starches, proteins, cellulose
    • Excess food, excrement, dead plant material, and vegetation
  2. Biological Pathogen Mitigation 🛡️
    PRB helps control harmful pathogens through:

    • Competitive exclusion: Outcompeting harmful bacteria for space and resources.
    • Production of antagonistic compounds: Naturally occurring compounds produced by PRB bacteria inhibit the growth of harmful pathogens such as:
      • Columnaris
      • Streptococcus
      • Aeromonas
      • Vibrio (particularly effective for vibrio control)
  3. Aquaponics Compatibility 🌱
    PRB is highly compatible with aquaponic systems, where it colonizes plant roots, enhances nutrient uptake, and stimulates the immune response of aquatic organisms.

  4. Extensive Enzyme Production 🧪
    PRB bacteria produce a variety of enzymes that aid in the breakdown of complex organic compounds, improving water clarity and reducing sludge buildup.

  5. Supports Gut Health 🐠
    When ingested, PRB bacteria contribute to the gut health of aquatic organisms, improving feed conversion rates and overall resilience.

  6. Biofloc System Enhancement 🌊
    PRB is particularly useful in biofloc systems, where it helps regulate and boost biofloc formation, maintaining stable water quality and nutrient levels.

Applications:

  • Aquarium Dose - 5ml's per 50L

Dose Rate & Frequency:

These are recommended starting doses. The actual dose rate and frequency should be adjusted based on:

  • Stocking density
  • Waste accumulation levels
  • Specific water quality issues
