Overview

One And Only from Dr Tim's Aquatics is a concentrated live nitrifying bacteria product used to kick-start and support the nitrogen cycle in a new or struggling saltwater aquarium.

Rather than waiting weeks for a tank to cycle naturally, this gives you a dose of the specific bacteria responsible for converting ammonia and nitrite into less harmful nitrate, helping new systems become livestock-ready faster and more safely.

Key features
  • Live nitrifying bacteria formulated specifically for saltwater systems
  • Speeds up establishment of a stable nitrogen cycle in new tanks
  • Useful for re-seeding bacteria after a filter clean-out or system disruption
Who it's for

New reef and marine fish-only tank owners setting up a system, as well as existing tank owners dealing with an ammonia or nitrite spike after equipment changes or a filter media clean.

Setup & tips
  • Dose according to the tank volume, not just a flat amount, for the best result
  • Add an ammonia source (or your first hardy livestock) after dosing, since the bacteria need something to feed on to establish
  • Keep testing ammonia and nitrite through the cycling period rather than assuming it's done
  • Avoid running carbon or UV sterilisation immediately after dosing, as this can reduce bacterial establishment
