Product overview
FritzZyme TurboClean is a live heterotrophic bacteria liquid. It breaks down fish waste, leftover food, and plant debris in gravel and filter chambers so sludge does not sit as thick.
Use it to cut organic build-up, keep mechanical media clearer for longer, and reduce smells from rotting waste. It is a waste digester, not a nitrifying cycle starter like FritzZyme 7 or 9.
Key features
-
Waste: Heterotrophic bacteria that digest organic solids in the tank and filter.
-
Filters: Less packed detritus in pads and sponges, so flow holds up better between cleans.
-
Odour: Helps with smells from anaerobic waste in the substrate.
-
Storage: Keep cool and dark. No fridge needed. Use within about two years.
Water and system compatibility
-
Water: Freshwater and marine. Safe for fish, invertebrates, and plants when used as directed.
-
