    Sory Mod not sure where I should post the qestion.

    Anyway just wondering the effectiveness of PSB (Photo Synthetic Bacteria) in clearing or eating the small debries. I read at CAU web site, they add PSB after the last water change before photo taking

    My question is:
    1) Anybody have experience before? or anybody use this method before photo taking?
    2) How long does it take for it to take effect?
    3) Which brand available in the market? which shop have it? C328 don't have it

    Thanks in advance

    What is photo synthetic bacteria? Hmm... photo = light, so this bacteria depends on light?

    I believe it meant those bacteria kit that help kick start cycling a tank. These bacteria might photosynthesis like plants consuming Ammonia and other chemicals released during the process.

    Apparently this bacteria eating the free floating debris, so it clears up the water. It is also contains high proteins, varioous vitamins and caroteoids for nutrition and brightening fishes.

    Nope, that is why I want to try you never know until you try.

    I'm more interested on its ability to eat up floating debris.

    cyanbacteria is photosynthetic...

    I haven't heard of bacteria "eating". I wonder how they do it with their cell wall in the way. Bacterial equivalent of macrophages in a bottle?? Then, their claim of 10^9 cells/ml in a bottle at room temperature is also

    ck
