GlasGarten Bacter AE: Enhanced Shrimp Tank Treatment for Optimal Health and Water Conditions Review

I noticed that the shrimp are slowly dying. My guess is that I contaminated the water with fish food and they were too big to support a growing colony. I needed something to feed them all and my Amano grabbed the lion's share and ran away. I've been using this for a good 2-3 days and I've noticed that my shrimp have become more active and their extinction has slowed. The water quality is looking much better and I think this will be a game changer as they breed.

This product has completely changed the way I feed my cherry shrimp and ghost shrimp. They used to all swarm into the food bowl when I put some food in it, but now when I feed their tank once a day they don't seem to rush to the food bowl at all when it's time to eat. If I scoop it into the tank instead, most of them go up and start picking up the clumps and tearing them off the moss. They love it and are much more active after about a week of use. I will receive it from now on.

I am new to shrimp farming and I was worried that the shrimp would not have enough food, especially for babies, so I bought it. The shrimp are crazy about him! I was also worried about my Nerite snails, I wanted to grow some biofilm quickly because I was concerned that with my shrimp and snails in my 5 gallon and my 2 gallon betta and snail tank it would quickly run out. The 2 gallon tank is a temporary tank with cycles and filters, but it runs out of algae very quickly and helps feed the…

This is great BUT the recommended amount is too much. If you use this amount, you will see ammonia spikes and possibly shrimp kills, depending on the number of bubble stones and usage. Is it powdered food? which contains aerobic bacteria and coats your plants/decor to encourage the growth of the biofilm that the shrimp actually eat. Aerobic bacteria mean they can actually use up the oxygen your shrimp need to live, so you should at least have a good aeroston. Pour some water into the container…

Bacter AE is a great product and comes highly recommended by many experienced shrimp owners. Do a product search on YouTube to see first-hand results. I've been using it in a low tech red cherry/amano shrimp tank for a little over a month with great results. The shrimp like to eat it alone and I have noticed that more biofilm forms on my sponge filter and catappa leaves which is an important food source for my cherry shrimp, especially the juveniles. Because the grains are so small, they…

I have a 5 gallon aquarium with cherry shrimp, lamb snails and two pygmy kori. I had problems with the shrimp surviving. I fed them sinking pellets and although they ate fine something was wrong. The adults gradually died out. Some successfully gave birth and then died. Babies grow up and then they begin to die. My colony did not prosper. All water parameters were excellent, I had constant weekly cleaning and water changes and the aquarium was set up for over half a year. I have experience in…

This is a great product. After ordering it came very quickly and was well packaged. The can itself is also well designed. After unscrewing the top cover, the inner cover opens. The small measuring spoon rests on the lid and stays separate from the powdered food. The inner lid also prevents food from turning into airborne dust particles when opened. It can also save food if it falls down when opening. The food itself is powdered and is very good. Pour into the aquarium, measure out the portion…

I am writing this review late. Please read my entire review before you get mad at me. The only reason I give stars is because so many other people are raving about this product, but I have to be honest I haven't seen any benefit from this product. With so many other people swearing by it, I have to keep in mind that, for whatever reason, my experience is rare and I don't want to downgrade a good product if I've had an extremely rare experience. I'm not trying to say there is no benefit or that…
