Aqueon PURE is nitrifying live bacteria that helps to maintain a well-balanced aquarium and is easy to dose. Nitrifying bacteria live on surfaces such as filter media, décor and gravel, converting harmful ammonia and nitrite to less toxic nitrate. By dosing weekly, the enzymes and bacteria breakdown excess waste from over feeding or detritus in the aquarium which can help reduce filter maintenance.

The unique sphere design of PURE provides surfaces for the bacteria and enzymes to reside until conditions are ideal to be utilized efficiently. This “time release” style means PURE cannot be overdosed and any excess bacteria will be waiting until needed. PURE disappears to the eye when added directly to the aquarium and works most effectively when introduced to a filtered tank system. While it does not dissolve completely, the small PURE left behind will go unnoticed and can be removed during water changes.

Aqueon PURE is the solution for aquarists who want to bring balance to their aquarium with the convenience of simple dosing and a blend of bacteria plus enzymes that breakdown excess waste. This does not replace water changes but provides a sort of safety net should the habitat become unbalanced. Satisfaction Guarantee.

    It works and it’s so easy to use!
    I am confused by other reviews saying that the balls didn’t dissolve, because these balls dissolve instantly, so I’m not sure what they are talking about! (Did they not remove them from the packaging?? lol)I initially got these because my tank water was looking a little “green” from all the plants I have and even though I was changing water often, it just wasn’t looking crystal clear. I added one ball into my 7 gallon tank and the next day it looked so clean! I can’t believe the difference this stuff makes! So happy!I also added one to my other 5 gallon betta tank and it looks amazingly clear now too. Great product.

    Excellent!
    Excellent.   I’ve only purchased these from the local pet stores until this time… they’re exactly what I usually buy locally and work great.

    Only ones I use
    I use these on all my new set ups. Only thing I don’t care for it takes forever for the balls to dissipate. It is kind of lay on the floor of the aquarium. But I’ve never had a problem with them.

    Helps to add beneficial bacteria
    Adds back beneficial bacteria when you do water changes. It helps out beta not get so stressed and adds back a balance after cleaning a tank.

    Had a cloudy snail/shrimp tank with not a high bioload!
    This was so helpful for my 10 gallon tank I only have snails and dwarf shrimp and I kept getting cloudy water even with 50% water changes once a week and complete vacuum every week. I actually got a sample of this from my local pet supplies plus store and after only 2 days I noticed a HUGE different in water clarity! It was completely clear!!! So I did notice to keep my 10 gallon clear I need 3 of the balls so next time I will just get the 30 Gallon balls. If anyone wonders how stocked my tank is : 9 piano snails they are all med to small snails and hardly ever move! 5 mystery snails 1 large the rest med to small size, 3 super tiny bladder snails, and 12 neocardinia shrimp who do not add much to bioload! Not really sure why my water would get cloudy it was not very bad but not crystal clear like I like it! WIth these balls they have made my cleaning and up keep so much better:) I will forever use them!

    do not buy this product, I am still fighting it after a couple of months it just won’t go away
    I purchased these Aquarium  beneficial and I am just getting around to updating this review after trying these aquarium balls in my 20 gallon tank, after a few weeks of them be in they were dissolving and now they’re killing my fish. I can’t get rid of it. I’ve changed my tank three times now of all the water and debris and washed all the fixtures in it and this stuff  is clinging to everything it and has gotten inside of all the tanks equipment . It will not go away. I’ve lost five of my favorite beautiful fish that I’ve had for the last couple years. , and after changing the water over and over and cleaned up everything a couple of days later it starts to fog up again, I have replaced everything in my tank with new stuff and it still is clinging to inside the filters inside the heater. It keeps coming out,  I am still fighting it, I swear that makers of this product should be sued. It’s so horrible  an experience to go through this. Please don’t buy this, you will be sorry down the line. This doesn’t happen overnight good luck.Why did you pick this product vs others?:

    I love placing these little balls in my tank, they work but mine came damaged and they’re not cheap, cheaper on Amazon then Pet Smart. However, they were awesome in their return.

    I’ve used these for years and love them, unfortunately 2 of the 12 were dried out. Disappointed, that’s over $4 in loss.

    Put several extra into a dirty tank and didn’t notice any difference. Cleaned the tank and filters and added a few and hopefully that will work.
