Normally, the nitrification cycle takes 4-6 weeks, during which the dangerous nitrite peak can kill fish. Bactiva contains various strains of immediately active live bacteria (not in spore form like many competitors) that quickly colonize the filter and substrate, reducing the nitrite peak below the danger threshold. The packaging with a diaphragm valve is crucial: it preserves live bacteria much longer than traditional packaging. Always use it after filter cleaning or medicinal treatments. Combine it with a water conditioner for optimal results. Works in both fresh and marine water.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aquaristica","offers":[{"title":"120ml","offer_id":46049256276131,"sku":"60250","price":11.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"200ml","offer_id":46049256308899,"sku":"60252","price":15.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"400ml","offer_id":46049256341667,"sku":"60253","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"800ml","offer_id":46049256374435,"sku":"60254","price":41.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/3472\/5027\/files\/aquaristica-bactiva_9d257487-6a0a-4a13-92bc-d332e4ca01c4.jpg?v=1757366438","url":"https:\/\/hobbypescaeacquari.live\/en\/products\/aquaristica-bactiva","provider":"HobbyPesca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
