Review on 🐠 Enhancing Fish Health with Activ Betta's Bio-Activ Live Aqueous Solution: A Worldwide Import by Rob Misra

ATTENTION TO THE BUYER! THERE IS AMMONIA!

DO NOT BUY! Random bottles contain toxic ammonia! I've had two bottles of this brand of water that tested positive for free ammonia - using the Seachem Free Ammonia Kit. I thought purchasing this bottled water would be a safe and easy alternative to mixing my own water for a hospital aquarium that is only 2 gallons. I was wondering why my Betta never got better after 2 rounds of Cupramine for Velvet and 2 rounds of Polyguard. I followed Seachem's directions and spoke to their representatives frequently. I'm sure they knew I was calling and secretly hated taking my calls because I was calling so often. But I couldn't understand why Blanche Betta Devereux wasn't doing better. Also, I could NOT understand why their ammonia levels were as high as those of the Seachem reps. I felt in my gut and decided to check the bottled water I had. I was shocked and angry when I saw the ammonia levels in freshly opened water bottles. I immediately did an 80% water change by mixing my water with Seachem Prime and API Quick Start and did 10% water changes over the next few days to lower the ammonia levels. I even had to add Marineland zeolite to the aquarium to lower the ammonia levels while my little one was suffering from pinched fins. Those of you know that water quality is NECESSARY for sick fish to recover. For reference: UPPER RIGHT CORNER - Blanch water sample. BOTTOM RIGHT - Seachem reference sample.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • The list will be long.
